Etymology

Inherited from Ottoman Turkish صالق (ṣalıḳ, “at liberty, free, loose, thrown, cast, vagrant, savage”), from Ottoman Turkish صالمق (ṣalmaḳ, “to loose, to free, to let go, to send”), from Proto-Turkic *sal- (“to swing, to let hang down, to let go, to spare, to set free, to drop, to lower”), morphologically sal- + -ık. Cognates with Azerbaijani salıq (“news”), Kazakh салық (salyq, “tax, duty”), Kyrgyz салык (salık, “tax, duty”), Turkmen salyk (“drooping”).
