çekim: geçmiş halannut · şimdiki halaa · ulaç halaava

to soothe or appease (a crying or tantrum-throwing baby)
köken: The phonetic elements in the Nôm characters used to write this word (杜 (MC duX), 徒 (MC du)) as well as the modern North Central form thỗ/thổ point to earlier form with *-d-. This word is unrelated to 誘 (MC yuwX) (SV: dụ), although the character appeared in latter Nôm texts as sound changes in the mainstream dialects caused the two to become similar enough for 誘 to be used as a phonetic element.

Etimoloji
Probably a blend of Middle French cageoler (“chatter like a jay”, from gajole (dialectal diminutive of geai (“jaybird”))) + Old French gaioler (“entice into a cage”, from gaiole), which is from Late Latin caveola (diminutive from Latin cavea (“cage, coop, enclosure, stall”)).
