ārt
Meaning:
1. the back or hinder part of something; 2. the other side of something; 3. a mountain pass or col.
Originally “the nape of the neck”; hence also (1) “mountain pass, col”, as a depression between two elevations, and (2) “the back or rear part of something”. In the second sense it is synonymous with arka, but in adverbial expressions meaning “behind”, art is preferred.

art (?a:rd) originally ‘the nape of the neck’; hence (1) ‘a mountain pass or col’ (like the nape of the neck a depression between two elevations); (2) ‘the back or hinder part of anything’. In (2) it was syn. w. arka: q.v., but for Adv. expressions meaning ‘behind’ art was used in preference to arka:. The Directive f. artğaru ‘backwards’ is not noted before the medieval period. S.i.a.m.l.g.; in SW Osm., Tkm. (a:rt) before Suffs. beginning with vowels ard, which may represent the original form. Türkü viii ff. a:rt üze: ‘on a mountain pass’ IrkB 6 (2 er-): Uyğ. viii ff.
