The Shardak (Bashkir: Шарҙаҡ) is a river in the Tatyshlinsky District of Bashkortostan, in Russia; it flows into the river Yug (Bashkir: Йоҡ, a tributary of the Bystry Tanyp). It flows past the villages Old Shardak (Bashkir: Иҫке Шарҙаҡ ) and New Shardak (Bashkir: Яңы Шарҙаҡ).
Hydronym 'Shardak' has Finno-Ugric origin, now the term 'Shardak' is preserved in Bashkirs from Urman-Girey clan and means - 'fishing net'. The term and hydronym in the form of a “Shardz” is also preserved in the Ugro-Finnish languages themselves, for example, in Komi, Mari, Sámi, Finnish languages. So in the languages Komi-Ziryane and Komi-Permyak from Perm Krai, fishing tackle is called a Shardz. A number of rivers and lakes where Mari, Komi, Finns (Suomi), Sámi live are still called Shardi, Sharda.[1]
If initially from Finno Ugric fishermen 'sharda' (шарда) meant 'fishing tackle', then among Finno Ugric hunters, moose began to be called 'shardi' (шарды).[2]
