/daɫ.kaˈvuk/

Etimologia (Inglese)

A compound with the second element being kavuk (“caouk”), further etymology disputed. Tietze, Ayverdi et al. derive from dal (“naked”) + kavuk (“caouk”). Nişanyan doubts this etymology, and instead suggests a derivation from dal- (“to dive”) + kavuk (“caouk”), referring to the idiom kavuk sallamak.
