D sakın- (sa:kın-) Refl. f. of sa:k-; originally simply ‘to think’; this meaning s.i.s.m.l., but in most it has come to mean ‘to think longingly about (something); to desire’, or ‘to think anxiously about something, to be worried’, and the like. In SW Osm. sakın- means ‘to take care of oneself, be cautious, be on one’s guard against’ and (Trans.) ‘to protect’. These are meanings appropriate to sakla:-, saklan- and seem to be due to a folk etymology; in Tkm. sa:ğın- (sic) means ‘to stop and think’. Other modern forms are NE sağın-: SE Türki sağın-, segin-: NC sağın-: SC Uzb. soğin-: NW sağın-. More or less syn. w. Ö:-, q.v.
