ayın- used only in association with kork- and no doubt more or less syn. w. it. One of the words for ‘to fear’ in Mong. is ayi- (Kow. 2, Haltod 1) but the xm form is ayu- (Haenisch 11) and the resemblance is prob. fortuitous. N.o.a.b. Türkü vm ff. korkma: edgü:ti: ötü:n, ayınma: edgü:ti: yalvar ‘fear not, pray well’ (twice in different words) IrkB 19: Man. (gap) korkmaz ayınmaz M III 10,
