Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *q:ʷän- ( ~ -e-)
Meaning: a convex heap; a ball-shaped bush
Archi: qIʷeni
Comment: Attested only in Archi, but having probable external parallels (although the Arch. pharyngealisation here is excessive, and probably secondary). Arch. qIʷeni presupposes a suffixed form *q:ʷänV-j; the suffixless form (with a transformed meaning) is also preserved in Archi: Arch. qIʷen 'rock, cliff'.
