Nakh etymology :

Search within this database
Proto-Nakh: *=ōʁ- / *=ēbʁ-
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 to erect, plant 2 to sit
Chechen: =ōʁ-
Ingush: =oʁ- 1, =aʁ- 2
Batsbi: =oʁ- 1, =aʁ- 2
Comments: PN *=ōʁ- is the terminative stem; durative (with infix and Ablaut) *=ē-b-ʁ- is reflected in Chech. =īʁ- (with the same meaning).

    The intransitive Ablaut correlate with *-ā- is PN *=āʁ- 'to sit'. Vowel length here can be established by the Ing. pret. =äʁaw. In Bacb. the root is preserved in the compound ʕe=aʁ- "to sit". This is one of the relatively rare cases of the *a/*o "intransitive/ transitive" Ablaut in PN.

Khvarshi: =ah-

Lezghian etymology :

Search within this database
Proto-Lezghian: *jaq:V-
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 high 2 long
Lezghian: jarʁi 1
Tabasaran: jaʁ-li 1
Agul: jaʕaldi-l 1
Kryz: q:-aʁa 1
Archi: aqa 2
Comment: The Ag. form is from the Burshag dialect. Cf. also Tab. Düb. jaq:-li, Ag. Fit. jaq:al-t 'high'. In Lezg. there occurred a contamination with *[hI]alχä- 'long' q.v. (that is why we have jarʁi instead of *jarq:i; cf. also Lezg. Khl. t:aq:aj 'high', which contains a preverb t:-).

    The root is actually verbal, which is shown by verbal prefixation (q:-) in Kryz.; it is also very probable that the Tab. verb di-ji=ʁ-uz (Düb. dī=q:-)'to stand' reflects the same root.

    See Хайдаков 1973, 105.
