çekim: çoğul comadrejas
köken: From comadre (“midwife; godmother”) + -eja (diminutive suffix), said to be after its sinuous and nimble (and therefore “feminine”) figure. Compare equivalents in other Romance languages (Italian donnola, Portuguese doninha, Galician doniña, Romanian nevăstuică) but not only (Greek νυφίτσα (nyfítsa), Danish brud, Arabic اِبْن عِرْس (ibn ʕirs)).

çekim: geçmiş huiputtanut · şimdiki huiputtaisi · ulaç huiputtava
köken: huipata + -uttaa. The sense “to trick, scam, swindle” may be a blend of huijata + peiputtaa, or perhaps most likely by semantic influence from Swedish svindla; another possibility is inspiration from a dialectal huipata (“to trade (without seeing the product being sold)”) (a variant of huijata and/or huikata influenced by the dialectal onomatopoeic verb huipata (“to toss, to strike”)).
köken: Inherited from Old Czech kolčava. Further origin uncertain; possibly cognate with klát (“to strike, stab, spike”) from Proto-Slavic *kolti, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *kelh₂-.
köken: From nevastă + -uică, probably based on a superstitious euphemism. Calque of Bulgarian невестулка (nevestulka), Ottoman Turkish كلینجك (gelincik) or Greek νυφίτσα (nyfítsa). Similar words can also be found throughout the Mediterranean: Italian donnola, Portuguese doninha, Spanish comadreja.
