North Caucasian etymology :

Search within this database
Proto-North Caucasian: *c̣wĀjnV ( ~ c̣_-)
Meaning: fruit
Proto-Nakh: *stōm
Proto-Lezghian: *c̣(ʷ)Vn-
Proto-West Caucasian: *c̣ʷa
Notes: The comparison is probable, although not without problems: just as in the case with 'pear' (PNC *qǖrHV q.v.) the expected strengthening (*c̣wĀ- > *c:ʷa-) did not occur in PWC. Still, the PWC form rather belongs here than to PEC *ʕä̆mćō 'medlar, apple' q.v. (despite Trubetzkoy 1930, 276).
