ժաժիկ

Compare Northern Kurdish jajî, jajik (“a kind of cheese”), ژاژ (jaj, “name of a herb used to flavour cheese”), and Persian ژاژ (žâž, “thyme”). For the interchangeability of plant-names with ‘cheese’ or ‘milk’, compare Armenian պանիր (panir, “cheese”) and dialectal պանրխոտ (panrxot, “thyme”), or կաթնախոտ (katʻnaxot, literally “milk-grass”), կաթնածաղիկ (katʻnacaġik, literally “milk-flower”). Possibly related to Ottoman Turkish جاجیق (cacık).
