Etymology

[edit ]

First attested in the middle of 13th century. Native word, probably a derivation. Its base word is presumably jóg ("right hand"), an older variant of jog ("law"). Its ending is the obsolete noun-forming suffix -z . For the ending, compare száraz . For the word-initial shift from jo- to i-, compare inkább ("rather") (older variant jonkább) and irgalom ("mercy") (jorgat ("to have mercy") found in Halotti beszéd és könyörgés ("Funeral Sermon and Prayer ")). The notion of right hand and true, honest are connected in other languages, as well, such as German recht , English right , French droit , Finnish oikea .[1]
