Zargidaua/Zargidava	A Dacian town	Ζαργίδαυα	PTurk. *sark- to drip, ooze (капать, стекать по капле, сочиться): Karakh. sarq- (MK); Turkm. sar(ɨ)q-; MTurk. sarq- (AH); Uzb. sa(r)qi-; Krm. sarq-, sarx-; Tat. sarqɨ-; Bashk. harqɨ-; Kirgh. sarɨq-; Kaz. sarɨq-, sarqɨ-; KKalp. sarɨq-; Kum. sarq-; Nogh. sarq-; Khak. sarɨx-; Tv. sarɨq-; Chuv. sərɣən-.  ◊ VEWT 404, EDT 847-848, ЭСТЯ 7.  ‖ A Western isogloss. Note some of the Turkic derivatives (Kum. sarqɨm ‘thin flow’, Tat. dial. sarqɨm ‘thick whey left after pressing curds’ etc., see ЭСТЯ 7) which may speak in favour of the original meaning ‘to ooze, be filtered’. In this case the root may actually be derived from *srV ‘to be rare, thinned out’ (q.v.) (assuming that length in TM was secondarily shortened); cf. especially the common Western derivative *sār-k ̔V ‘maw used for filtering / fermenting’.	Sarg: very thin; mud	oba: dwelling place, muddy oba?

An expressive and late attested root; appears, however, to be reconstructable for PT. The original shape is probably *čap- (preserved in čap-ɨr- ‘to appear (of rash)’, with further labial assimilation into *čopur. The frequently attested variant čupar > čubar is most probably a result of contamination *čopur and *čubar (reflected in Tat. čuwar, Kirgh. čār that can only reflect *-b-).  PJpn. *səmpa freckles (веснушки): Tok. sobakasu.  ‖ KW 429, Владимирцов 255.
