Meaning: 1 loop 2 yoke-tape 3 buckle, clasp 4 snare, noose

Comments: In Tind. the word also means 'tongs, pincers': this is obviously a result of merger with PA *ʁimc̣V 'tongs' q.v. Tind. ḱic̣u > Inkh. kic̣u 'tongs'; kic̣ 'snare, trap' (either chronologically different loans, or loans from different dialects).
