VUF kutay n.o.a.b.; Rad. and Thomsen were no doubt right in translating this word, which occurs in two lists of precious objects, as ‘silk fabric’ of some kind; it is presumably a Chinese phr.; the second syllable might be tai ‘girdle’ (Giles 10,554). Türkü viii (their white silver) kırğağlığ kutayın ‘bordered silk fabric(?)’ (and musk-scented embroidered brocade) II N 11; a.o. do. 3 (éşgü:ti:). -
