Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *ƛ̣:ʷerƛ̣:ʷel-
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: woodpecker
Lezghian: ḳʷarḳʷalag
Tabasaran: k:ürk:ülaj
Agul: k:ʷedk:ʷedaj
Comment: An expressive reduplicated stem (with expressive suffixes: *-Vk:/*-Vj), and somewhat irregular development; nevertheless, the reconstruction of *ƛ̣:ʷ seems secure. Cf. also Lezg. Kub. ḳʷarḳʷalag, Tab. Kand. k:erk:eleg, Ag. Fit. k:ʷedk:ʷedaj id. (the Agul forms, cited from Shaumyan, may represent a partial contamination with another expressive PL stem, *ḳʷVṭḳʷVṭ- q.v.).
