Reconstruction:Proto-Turkic/badram

Etymology
Several etymologies are proposed, no consensus on the origin;
 * Clauson states that this term is 'no doubt an Iranian [loanword]' and gives Persian as an example. He also mentions how Dīwān Lughāt al-Turk claims this word to be a genuine word ('not a loanword'), where it meant yawma'l-ˁīd among Oghuz and Kipchaks. Compare Karakhanid, a Karakhanid form with Persian meaning preserved, also given by Clauson. Sevortyan argues against Clauson on a Middle Persian loan into Proto-Turkic.


 * Nişanyan proposes a borrowing from Middle Persian or Sogdian, which in turn would come from Proto-Iranic , ulltimately a compound of  +  and would be a cognate with 🇨🇬; but he does not discard a potential Mongolic origin, from , which would make this term cognate with 🇨🇬 instead.


 * EDAL puts forth that the Proto-Turkic form is instead and that it comes from a hypothetical Proto-Turkic *bay-ra- ("to celebrate"), which is not related to . Authors of EDAL denounce a possibility of Iranian borrowing, stating "the only acceptable etymology of [Persian] bajram is [from] Turkic". This hypothetical *bay-ra- is then compared to 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬, whence 🇨🇬. Altaic Hypothesis is widely rejected however, and comparisons like these are deemed unreliable.


 * Eren (1999) rejects a relation with or Tuvan.

Lack of Oghur and Arghu reflexes and sparse atttestation in Siberian languages suggest a borrowing from an external source.
