Today I learnt that's the word for "coat" in Turkish. Funny thing is, I live in a Dutch-speaking country, and the elder, dialect-speaking people in my region, use the same word in the same sense! Time for some etymological research I think

you want more researches??
...i can tell you that Palto in bulgarian has the same meaning ..but i think there is nothing strange simply because turks andd bulgarians had lived together for 500years..so in bulgarian there are many turkish words ..such as :masa , kismet,ama,demek,merak,palto,canta,kilo,pazar(lik)...they are really really many...but in bulgarian some of them are not used any more...not in the official language..and the others-we dont even know they are not bulgarian ...

OK, that's not that strange. But I'm talking about a dialect in Belgium. This is about a completely different language family. Dutch is an Indo-European Germanic language. Turkish is an Ural-Altaic language...
Anyway, I'll post if I find out more about it.

Merhaba,
Bence benzer kelimelerin olusumu; dillerin bagli olduklari dil ailelerine degil, iliskide bulunduklari dillerle ilgili. "Bana arkadasini soyle, sana kim oldugunu soyliyeyim"
i think it is related with cultural interactions, not language families.
