Etymologia (English)

Inherited from osmańsko-turecki: اكمك

Cognate with azerbejdżański: əkmək

Cognate with południowoałtajski: эк-

In summary

From Ottoman Turkish اكمك (ekmek), from earlier اتمك (etmek), from Common Turkic *etmek. The medial consonant -t- is irregularly changed to -k- to avoid homophony with the verb etmek (“to do”) as expected.
