Etymology

[edit]

Of debated origin:[1]

  1. Borrowed from a Turkic language.
  2. From Proto-Uralic *toxe-, with the suffix -ik. Cognate with Proto-Finnic *toodak, Erzya туемс (tujems).

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): [ˈtojik]
  • Hyphenation: to‧jik
  • Rhymes: -ojik

Verb

[edit]

tojik

  1. (transitive, intransitive) to lay (eggs)

Usage notes

[edit]

This verb is called a pseudo-ik verb, as its -ik ending presents itself only in the 3rd-person singular (indicative present) form, but it is not an -ik verb in any other aspect. As a result, it cannot take the -om/-em/-öm ending in the 1st-person singular (indicative present) form, even in the most erudite style, only -ok/-ek/-ök. Naturally, the optional -m ending cannot appear, either, in their subjunctive or conditional 1st-person singular forms, so only -jak/-jek and -nék is possible in these respective forms. These verbs include the following: bomlik, (el)bújik, (meg)érik, (le)folyik, (össze)gyűlik, hazudik, (le)hull(ik), (bele)/(oda)illik, (meg)jelenik, (el)kopik, (el)múlik, ömlik, (meg)születik, (meg)szűnik, (meg)telik, tojik, (el)törik, (el)/(fel)tűnik, (el)válik, and (el)züllik. (Ki)nyílik partially belongs here, as it cannot take the first-person -om ending but it can take the third-person -jék.
