√KḪY
butler, steward – WehrCowan1979.
A loan (via Turkish ketḫüdā ?) from nPers katḫudā < mPers kat(ak)ḫwatāi, a village chief or representative of a landowner among the farmers.
Via Turkish ketḫüdā (‘1. A steward in a great man’s household, also a manager of a farm or estate. 2. A warden of a guild. 3. A bailiff of a village or ward. 4. An officious meddler’ – Redhouse1890) from NPers katḫudā‑ < mPers kat(ak)ḫʷatāi, a ‘village chief, or representative of a landowner among the farmers’. Another chain of tradition, mentioned by Eilers1962, resulted in a form with h‑ rather than ḫ:‑ ↗kāhiyaẗ‑.
