IPA: /ˈtɑːmədə/ [Received-Pronunciation], /ˈtɑːmədɑː/ [Received-Pronunciation], /ˈtɑmədə/ [General-American], /ˈtɑmədɑ/ [General-American] Audio: LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-tamada1.wav [Southern-England], LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-tamada2.wav [Southern-England] Forms: tamadas [plural]
Etymology: Borrowed from Georgian თამადა (tamada), from (Proto-?)Circassian *tħamada (compare Adyghe тхьаматэ (tḥamatɛ, “foreman of a village; boss; master; chairman; (dated) husband”), Kabardian тхьэмадэ (tḥɛmadɛ, “foreman of a village; boss; master; chairman; (dialectal) bridegroom, wooer”)), probably from Ottoman Turkish داماد (damat, “bridegroom; son-in-law; sovereign's brother-in-law”) (from Persian داماد (dâmâd, “bridegroom; son-in-law; father-in-law; sovereign's brother-in-law; lover, wooer”)) with the ending reshaped under the influence of Kabardian адэ (adɛ, “father”). The suggestion that the word is derived from a blend of თავი (tavi, “head”) + მაგიდა (magida, “table”) (in the sense of a person at the head of a table) is a folk etymology.
