Proto-Lezghian: *ṭ[e]mṭ
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 freckle 2 wart, nipple 3 nipple, female breast
Lezghian: ṭʷeṭʷ-el 1
Tabasaran: ṭiṭ 1
Agul: ṭalṭam 1
Rutul: ṭiṭ 2
Udi: c:ic:-ik: 3
Comment: An expressive root, thus the precise reconstruction is somewhat difficult. The word probably contained -m- in Inlaut, cf. the labialization in Lezg. and the Ag. form (ṭalṭam < *ṭVmṭ-al = Lezg. ṭʷeṭʷel). The suffixed -Vl is probably an exact match for the Av. and Bezht. forms q.v.
