Hallo, Hello, Merhaba!
Today is All Hallow' Day and is a religious public holiday in my homeland Bavaria.
It is raining and that's why a good day to star a new series called:
The words with uncertain etymology which I found by www.etymonline.com
The first word is 'oat', a well-known grassy plant.
I suggest Turkish 'ot' (old version of Uygur Turks 'oot') as word root.
Ot means simply and fast 'grass'.
'OT' and more the older version 'oot' are a 100 percent compatible in meaning and form with English 'oat'.
What do you mean?
