Etimologia (Inglese)

Ereditato da turco ottomano: تفتیك

Affine azerbaigiano: tiftik

In summary

From Ottoman Turkish تفتیك, تفتك (tiftik), دفتك (diftik), from Persian تفتیک (taftik), also تفدیگ (tafdig). Akin to Azerbaijani tiftik, Armeno-Kipchak դիֆդիգ (tiftik), դիվդիգ (tivtik). Nişanyan traces the word to the form II verbal noun of Arabic ف ت ك (f t k) related to slaughtering, but the spelling variation in Persian and Ottoman Turkish is inconsistent with a borrowing from Arabic by literate people.
