Etymology
Nyberg connects with the root, which in some descendants has the meaning “to ride”, ultimately from.

On the other hand, Ałayan derives from the homonymous root (in Cheung ), on which see Cheung and Bartholomae. From the initial unattested meaning “fast-moving” the senses “steed” and—in the Armenian and Turkic borrowings—“hunting dog” can be easily explained.
