çekim: çoğul kyljet · tamlayan kyljen
köken: From Proto-Finnic *külki (compare Estonian külg, Veps külʹg). Initially likely an anatomical term, although it has also developed the more abstract meaning “side” in most other Finnic languages as well.
Unadapted borrowing from English bacon, from Middle English bacon (“meat from the back and sides of a pig”), from Old French bacon, bacun (“ham, strip of lard”), from Frankish *bakkō, from Proto-Germanic *bakō, *baką, *bakaz (“back”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰeg- (“back, buttocks; to vault, arch”). Attested since 1899.
