Comments: VEWT 340, EDT 349, ЭСТЯ 7. One can argue that this form is derived from *bōjn 'neck' (in old sources the word is usually reserved for neck ornaments). Forms like mojɨn-ča-k, attested in Tat., Bashk., Nogh., Kirgh., as well as Chag. mɨnčaɣ, KBalk., Kum. minčaq should be probably explained that way; but the form *bōn-čok itself may rather reflect earlier *mōŋi-č`V(k`V) 'round ornament', with secondary contaminations.
