باقلوا

Ottoman Turkish

Alternative forms

  • باقلاوا (baklava), بقلاوا (baklava), بقلوا (baklava), بقلاوه (baklava)
  • بقلغی (baklağı), بقلغو (baklağu)

Etymology

First attested in Câmi-ül Fürs (1501) as بقلغی (baklağı), later also in Lügat-i Ni'metu'llâh (1540) as بقلغو (baklağu), with the same meaning.[1] For the development of the ending compare Turkish oklava from earlier اقلاغی (oklağı).[2]

  • Usually considered a word of unknown ultimate origin. [3][4][2][5][6][7]
  • Another etymology is that it's borrowed from Middle Mongol ᠪᠠᠭᠯᠠᠭ᠎ᠠ (baɣlag-a, bundle, package), originally from ᠪᠠᠭ (bag, covering) + ᠯᠤᠭ᠎ᠠ (-lug-a), literally with covering; itself a borrowing[8] from Old Turkic 𐰉𐰍𐰞𐰀 (baɣla-, to tie), with a -v suffix, whence also Ottoman Turkish باغلامق (bağlamak, to tie). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
