D ıra:k N./A.S. fr. ıra:-; ‘distant, far away’. S.i.a.m.l.g.; ırak is the only form in SW, and, with rak, in NE, and occurs in all other language groups; yirak is an alternative form in three of them, çırak only in NW. This proves that the y-, where it exists is secondary and prosthetic. Türkü viii ırak boḍunuğ ança: yağu:tı:r ermiş ‘thus they brought distant people nearer to them’ I S 5, II N 4; a.o.
