/ˈtjuːtənaɡ/

Forms: 1600s ( tintenagall), tutunaga; tutunac, tutanag, tutaneg, tuthinag(e, 1700s tutanague, ( tuten-, tutanaque), tutteneg, 1800s tuthenag, tutenage, 1600s– tutenag, tutenague; also 1600s ( teutenage), totaneg, 1700s tootanag, toothenague, toothenaque, toothanegg ( tooth and egg), tootnague (Yule).

Etymology: < Marathi tuttināg (Tamil tuttunāgam, Telugu tuttunāgamu), derived (according to Indian writers) < Sanskrit tuttha- blue vitriol, sulphate of copper + nāga tin or lead. Hence also Portuguese tutanaga, tutenaga, French toutenague (1723 in Hatzfeld & Darmesteter). The early forms in tint- used by English, Dutch, and French writers are difficult to account for.
