Comments and references : SCE 107. [?ST *sVr `thread']

Yenisseian etymology :

Proto-Yenisseian: *čīǯ-

Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology

Meaning: root

Ket: ti:ŕi⁴ (Kur.), pl. tīŕeŋ¹; Bak., Sur. ti:dǝ4 / tidǝ⁴, pl. tīdǝŋ¹ / tīdeŋ¹; South. tiŕ⁴, pl. tīŕeŋ¹

Yug: ti:^ht́, pl. tid́iŋ¹

Kottish: ičičan (Бол.) "root"

Pumpokol: kédiŋ (Сл., Срсл., Кл.)

Comments: ССЕ 217. The Pump. form tɨči (Срсл.), tɨčɨ (Кл.) is in reality Yug. Yug has a regular dissimilation ti:ht́ < *t́i:hd́-); Assan has i-čičan instead of *i-čijan (devoicing *čīǯ- > *čīč-); see КС 158. The Assan and Pumpokol form (with a completely regular k-: cf. kit 'stone' < *čɨʔs etc.; Werner's question mark is therefore excessive) point unanimously to *č-, so Werner's (2, 265) reconstruction <*t^hiʔǝd'ǝ> is incorrect; needless to say, Kott thempul, Arin t́ēmbirgaŋ 'root' (see *t[e]mbVĺ-), despite Werner, have nothing to do with the present root.

Bizkaian: sustrai, zustrai 1, sustar, suster 1, 2, 3

Gipuzkoan: sustrai 1, 4

High Navarrese: sustrai 1

Comments: A western Bsq isogloss. Cf. sirats 'nerve, vein, tendon' (Trask 1995; not in Azkue with this meaning). The BZK form zustrai is anomalous (not having the usual assimilation of sibilants) - influenced by *sul 'wood, tree'?
