- <Eşekni Ardınca Miniş> Afanti eşegini ardınca minep bazarda yürbar,Bir hobun balalar anıñ ardında ireşip sormış:--Afanti dada,sen nege eşeğiñni Ardınca minbür?Afanti yüre yüre demiş:--Men eşeğimni ilince minse,meniñ arqam selerge çevribür,Beyleki volsa selerni men kişi gör yoqdur;Eli,seler meniñ ilimde volsa,selerniñ arqañ maña çevribür,beyleki gelse seler meni kişi gör yoqdur. ― "Riding a Donkey Backwards" Avanti was riding a donkey backwards the street, and a group of children followed him and asked strangely: "Uncle Avanti, why are you riding a donkey backwards?" Avanti replied as he walked: "If I am riding a donkey, my back is facing you, which is disrespectful to you; if you run to my front, your back is pointed at me, which is right. I don't respect it anymore.

[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Ottoman Turkish اشك (eşek, “donkey, ass; a silly, stupid, perverse man”), from Proto-Turkic *eĺčgek (“donkey”).[1] Related to Proto-Mongolic *elǰigen (“donkey”), whence Mongolian илжиг (ilžig, “donkey”), perhaps from a common source or a result of language contact.[2] Nişanyan thinks Old Turkic [script needed] (eşgek, “donkey”) may be derived from Old Turkic [script needed] (eş-, “to walk, trot”) (for which see eşmek).[3]
Cognate with Old Uyghur [script needed] (eşgek, “donkey”), Azerbaijani eşşək (“donkey”), Bashkir ишәк (işək, “donkey”), Kazakh есек (esek), Chuvash ашак (aš̬ak, “donkey”), Kyrgyz эшек (eşek, “donkey”), Turkmen eşek (“donkey”), Uzbek eshak (“donkey”), and Russian ишак (išak, “donkey”).
