Meaning: to sweep
Lezghian: šutk-

Archi: =eƛ̣:a-
Comment: Cf. also Arch. dur. =erƛ̣:u-r, Tab. Düb. ǯi=ɣ-, Kand. ǯi=ḳ- / il-č̣i=k-, Ag. Bursh. ǯika-. The Archi form is the most archaic; other languages reflect a form with an expressive preverb (*č:- or *č̣-) and irregular dissimilative / assimilative developments of the second consonant. See Trubetzkoy 1922, 241.
