Proto-Turkic
Reconstruction
Daughter languages show various secondary changes due to a difficult consonant cluster.
Some sources reconstruct *kïmïrsga or *kumïrsga to explain the unrounded vowel found in all Siberian varieties and North Kipchak, however the oldest sources point to rounded vowels.
Etymology
Perhaps analyzable as *kumur- + *-ga, the latter being a common ending in animal names.
