Актуальные вопросы тюркологических исследований

33 XХXIII–XXXIV Кононовские чтения Chinese verb 布 bù has these meanings: “2. to spread / to publicize / to announce / to declare 3. to spread 4. to arrange 5. to extend / to scatter / to spread 6. to present offering / to dedicate” [24]; “to declare, to announce, to spread, to make known” [41]. In addition to the meanings of Chinese verb 布 bù , considering that boš has the meanings “independent, free” and bošu- has “to free, to liberate, to release” [28: 82; 9: 377; 14: 594–595], at that case we can suppose a semantic relation between Turkic hypothetical verb *bo- and Chinese verb 布 bù . Because if something is spreading ( 布 bù ) or publicized (announced or declared), then it is “free, released or liberated ( boš )” [12: 77]. But we can’t say certainly both opinions regarding that the stem * bo- was borrowed from Chinese or it has a Turkish origin and this verb was borrowed to Chinese from Turkish in an unknown time. Because we know that Turkish has the kind of verbs which is monosyllabic and they end with a vowel such as sï-, ye-, de- etc. Secondly, the above-mentioned opinion suggested by R. R. Arat [2: 385] seems to be reasonable. In my opinion, the structure of the word bošγutčï in Old Uighur can be explained by this way: bošγutčï < * bo-š+u-γ+u-t+čï 18 . Literature: 1. Arat, R. R.
