Etymology

Inherited from Ottoman Turkish: قیزاموق

Cognate with Turkmen: gyzamyk

Cognate with Tatar: кызамык

In summary

Inherited from Ottoman Turkish قیزاموق (kızamuk). From kızıl (“red”) and a no longer productive suffix -mık producing nouns from colors. Compare porsuk (“badger”) formed from boz (“grizzled, gray, dun”) and the same suffix with different vowel harmony. Both words date to proto-Turkic times and have lost interior consonants in modern Turkish.
