distaff (part of a spinning wheel from which fibre is drawn to be spun)
çekim: çoğul rocas
köken: Ultimately from Proto-Germanic *rukkô, although the intermediate language is uncertain. Possibly Gothic *𐍂𐌿𐌺𐌺𐌰 (*rukka), however, the vowel quality in Iberian Romance (/ɔ/ in Portuguese, /we/ in Spanish) points to a possible West Germanic loanword, or to the influence of Latin rota (“wheel”). Cognate to Galician roca, Spanish rueca, Italian rocca, Old High German rocko (German Rocken).
distaff: a tool used in spinning fiber, such as wool · spinning, spun thread
çekim: çoğul colī · tamlayan colī

spinning distaff (part of a spinning wheel from which fibre is drawn to be spun)
çekim: çoğul rocas
köken: Perhaps from Gothic *𐍂𐌿𐌺𐌺𐌰 (*rukka); or, given its open stressed vowel, rather from a West Germanic cognate of it (compare Old High German rocko), from Proto-Germanic *rukkô. Cognate with Portuguese roca and Spanish rueca.
