Proto-Tsezian: *ciṭʷV A / *tic̣ʷV A
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 button 2 belt
Tsezi: ceṭʷa 1
Ginukh: ceṭa 1
Khvarshi: ceṭo 1
Inkhokvari: ceṭo 1
Bezhta: tic̣iro 2 (Khosh.)
Comments: PTsKh *c[i]ṭʷV (not clear is -e- in Inkh.; -i- or -ɨ- would be expected). Cf. also Bezht. Tlad. tic̣iro 'belt'. Semantically 'belt' is in this case obviously a secondary development < 'buckle'. In Bezht. Khosh. another similar word is witnessed: ṭuruci 'button'; ṭuruci and tic̣iro probably represent an etymological doublet due to interdialectal borrowing.
