Turtle

(Lev 11:29; Hebrew Tzab). In the Russian and Slavic Bible there is a lizard (perhaps Dabb) with its breed. According to the Law of Moses, he is classified as unclean. However, it is believed that what is meant here is one of the species of a large lizard, and not the actual reptile animal, known to us from zoology as a turtle.

Etymological Dictionary of the Russian Language

Turtle

Old Russian - skull (shard, splinter).

Old Slavonic - chrap.

Indo-European – (s)ker-t-s- (cut, separate).

The word “turtle” appeared in Russian no later than the end of the 17th century. In R. James we find the word “cherapak” in 1618. The nickname “turtle” has been known since 1686.

Etymologically, it belongs to the group of words “skull”, “shard”, “tile”. The common Slavic name of the animal, apparently, was zely, the outdated name of the earthly turtle (colloquial) is “zhelv”, “zhelvets”.

Derivatives: turtle, tortoiseshell, tortoiseshell.
