Proto-North Caucasian: *ṭV̆tV(wV)
Meaning: silver; gold
Notes: An interesting Nakh-Ub. isogloss; borrowing is hardly possible (there are no direct Nakh-Ubykh contacts, and the appearance of the words excludes direct borrowing), thus the root may go back to the PNC level. See Trubetzkoy 1930, 276.

Proto-Nakh: *ṭatVb
Meaning: silver
Chechen: deti
Ingush: dotuw
Batsbi: ṭateb
Comments: 3d class in all languages. Initial d- in Chech. and Ing. is secondary (obviously under the influence of *dašVb 'gold' - Chech. deši, Ing. došuw - q.v.). Cf. also Khild. detiw id. Related is also Bacb. tiṭbe-r 'bronze'.
