North Caucasian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-North Caucasian: *=HVq̇_wVn
Meaning: to swallow
Notes: An Aand-Lezg. isogloss. In Lezgian languages the root tends to contaminate with the reflexes of *HVq̇_Vr 'to drink' and *=Hoq̇_V 'to sink' (q.v.).

Lezghian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Lezghian: *ʔeq̇IʷV(n)
Meaning: 1 to swallow 2 to suck
Lezghian: t-üq̇ün- 1
Tabasaran: t-u=q̇I- 1
Tsakhur: o=q̇Ia- 2
Comment: Lezg. and Tab. have an expressive dental preverb. Loss of -n-conjugation in Tsakh. is not clear; it may be caused by an influence of other similar roots (cf. e.g. Tsakh. -o=ʁI- 'to drink, swallow' (with different preverbs)). We may note that an analogical influence occurred in Tab. Düb. - we have there qIuṭ-u=q:I- 'to swallow', opposed to Tab. Kand., lit. qIuṭ-u=q̇I- and obviously influenced by u=q:- 'to drink' (see *HVq̇_Vr).
