𐱅𐰼𐰚𐰤
tärkin
Meaning:
quick, fast, quickly; suddenly
tärkin is the instrumental form of tärk: tärk + +(I)n. The instrumental commonly has an adverbial function in Old Turkic, and the form is nearly synonymous with its base, meaning “quickly, immediately; very soon”.
A useful morphological parallel is modern Turkish ansız ~ ansızın “suddenly”, where the instrumental ending likewise creates an adverbial form without substantially changing the meaning.
