Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *ʁanč̣
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 bite 2 gnaw
Lezghian: ʁʷarč avun 2
Tabasaran: ʁanc̣ aṗub 1
Archi: haInč̣ bos 1
Comment: An expressive root, thus the correspondences are violated (excessive labialisation in Lezg., irregular correspondences between affricates). The Arch. word has been modified under Avar influence (cf. Av. ħanč̣-ize), but it must not be considered as a loanword because of its Lezg. and Tab. counterparts.
