eş: kidnappen
köken: From Middle High German entvüeren (also enphüeren), from Old High German intfuoren. By surface analysis, ent- + führen, literally “to lead off, to take away”. Formed similarly to Latin abducere, but the Old High German translates other Latin verbs, so a calque must remain speculative. Compare Dutch ontvoeren.

Ihr Gesang entführte mich in die verlorene Welt meiner Vorfahren.
çekim: geçmiş răpit · ortaç răpit · şimdiki răpește
köken: Inherited from Vulgar Latin *rapīre, from Latin rapere, from Proto-Italic *rapiō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁rp-i-, from *h₁rep- (“to snatch”).

çekim: çoğul plagia · tamlayan plagiī
köken: Probably from or related to plaga (“hunting net”), thus originally meaning "a catching", from Proto-Indo-European *pleḱ- (“to weave”). See also plectō (“to weave”).
köken: The Đại Nam quấc âm tự vị (1895) explains this as a truncation of the phrase bắt cóc bỏ dĩa (“pointless, futile”, literally “to get a toad and put it on a plate”), since a toad (captive) being put on a plate (useless confinement) can easily jump away; if so, the second element is indeed cóc (“toad”). Still, this might just be a folk etymology.
