başkan

"Başkan" is a Turkish word that translates to several English words depending on the context:

  • President: This is often the primary translation, especially when referring to the head of state of a republic.
  • Chairman/Chairperson: Used for the person presiding over a meeting, committee, or organization.
  • Head: In a general sense, referring to the leader or person in charge of something.
  • Mayor: For the elected head of a municipality.
  • Chief: In some contexts, like the head of an organization or department.
  • Leader: A general term for someone who guides or directs a group.

Apparently combines the Turkic root baş(i) (“head”) and the (originally Mongol, widely adopted) polyvalent title Kan.
