Proto-North Caucasian: *simV (~ -ɨ̄-,-ä̆-)
Meaning: lip; gum
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *simV Notes: The comparison seems plausible in spite of some irregularities (mostly in PTs); -n- in Lak. may be due to the influence of the phonetically close sina 'gum, glue'.

Proto-Tsezian: *ZɨmV- (~-i-)
Meaning: gum (in mouth)
Ginukh: somore
Inkhokvari: zɨmor
Comments: PTsKh *[zɨ]mor-. The unvoicing *z- > s- in Gin. is unclear. Even stranger are parallels in other languages: Tsez. cemori, Bezht. c̣imac̣ (Khosh.), č̣imäṭö (Tlad.), Gunz. c̣emaṭ. We probably deal with a result of some secondary contaminations.
