Ji Ottoman Turkish mîras hatiye girtin: چته

In summary

Borrowed from Serbo-Croatian četa, from Ottoman Turkish چته (çete, “raid, loot”), attested before 1512. According to Nişanyan the South Slavic četa is a borrowing from Ottoman Turkish and it is derived from çat-/çet- “to hit, strike, steal”, see more at çatmak or its reciprocal form çatışmak (“to conflict”). /a/>/e/ or /ı/>/i/ transformation in words containing "/ç/" or "/ş/" is common in Turkish.
