reason (ability to think) · sense (meaning, reason, or value of something) · sense (sound practical judgment)
çekim: çoğul järjet · tamlayan järjen
köken: From Proto-Finnic *järki (“order, row”), of unknown further origin. The original sense can be seen in derived terms like järjestää. The sense of "order" would have later shifted to that which provides order, or sense, i.e. the faculty of reason.
köken: From Old Latin caussa, from Proto-Italic *kaussā, further origin unknown. Connected by some to Latin cudo (“to strike”), in the sense "strike a cause," in which the Proto-Indo-European form would be *kewh₂-ud-ʰ-t-, from *kewh₂- (“to cut, strike”). Others are skeptical of an Indo-European origin. Related to Etruscan 𐌂𐌀𐌅𐌔𐌀 (cavsa).
