Uralic

Amazing how three such 'similar' and semantically related Hungarian words can be assigned entirely separate and unrelated origins. What an amazing set of coincidences, if you can believe it!

(a) Official source says kallantyú is derived from ka(l)lant- "bend"; "turn away" to which it postulates a possible onomatopoeic or descriptive origin. [Chong]

(b) Apparently, kilincs derives from some French word according to [ehh3]

Perhaps it is from French clôturer 'to enclose;to lock; to finish, complete' ?

(c) Officially, Hungarian kulcs is also thought to be from Slavic never mind a possible Iranian parallel.
