Turkification of Proto-Slavic words

Proto-Slavic is an Indo-european language. The word "Bogatyr" is of Indo-european origin and has no roots in Turkic! In fact, it is the Turkic languages that adapted many Indo-european words. There is no evidence for this word to be of turkic origin and the creators who constantly add imaginary turkic orgin theories to wikipedia articles about the etymology of Slavic words seem to follow some type of agenda. There is not even a logical context to assume that the word "Bogatyr" is of turkic origin because Bogatyrs were Eastern Slavic heroes who faught against turkic and turco-mongolian invaders! The word Bogatyr is simply rooted in Sanskrit and derived from Proto-Slavic "Bog" for english "god"! 94.17.154.23 (talk) 05:57, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

I find it weird to have a photo of the page of a book in this section. It is in Russian and close to useless, because I cannot even cut and paste into google translate. THe book is readily available. Someone fluent in Russian, please replace this with article text.- Altenmann >talk 18:35, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
