Etimologia (Anglès)

Cognat amb azerbaidjanès: subay

In summary

Probably from a misinterpretation of
Chagatai [script needed] (subay, “light cavalry”) as a compound cognate with Old Turkic 𐰾𐰇 (s²ü, “army; spearmen; heavily armed pedestrian or horsemen”)
and Old Turkic 𐰋𐰏 (b²g, “lord”) and thus having the meaning 'army lord', in order to coin a replacement for the Ottoman ضابط (“zâbit”) during Turkish language reform. See more at Azerbaijani subay.
