Turkish
editEtymology
editFrom Ottoman Turkish قیا (kaya), قایا (kaya, “rock”), from Proto-Turkic *k(i)aya (“rock, mountain”).[1] Possibly akin to Proto-Mongolic *kada (“rock”) (Mongolian хад (xad, “large rock, cliff”)) and Proto-Tungusic *kada(r) (“rock”) (Evenki кадага (kadaga, “rock, cliff”)), (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?) however Old Turkic -y- instead of the expected -d- is baffling, EDAL suggests Old Turkic [script needed] (kaya, “rock”) is perhaps a borrowing from some archaic "y-dialect"[2] such as Oghuz, Karluk and Kipchak languages where regular d→δ→y evolution took place. Helimski (1995)[3] suggests a borrowing from Proto-Samoyedic *koəjə (“mountain”).
