Proto-Tsezian: *L:ed A
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 deer 2 female deer
Tsezi: ʎid 2
Ginukh: ʎid 2
Khvarshi: ʎed (Radzhibov)
Inkhokvari: ʎed 1
Bezhta: led
Gunzib: lǝd
Comments: PTsKh *ʎed; PGB *led (with a strange reflex -ǝ- in Gunz. - perhaps, a misspelling?). In Inkh. one would rather expect *led (and reconstruct PTsKh *Led); perhaps we deal with a loanword from Khvarshi?

Proto-North Caucasian: *ŁürdV
Meaning: a k. of horned animal
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *ƛidir (?)
Proto-Tsezian: *L:ed A
Proto-Lak: gada
Proto-Dargwa: *gada
Proto-Lezghian: *ƛ:ert:(a)
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. Correspondences are normal (although the vowel *-ü-, as usual, raises some doubts), although PA has a quite unexpected *ƛ- (regularly *l- would be expected). This may be a dissimilation in voice; or, perhaps, other languages have undergone a secondary voicing *ƛ- > *Ł- before the next voiced *-d- - in this case we should reconstruct PEC *ƛürdV. [The Darg. and Lak. words for 'kid' should not be confused with a widely spread word for 'boy' in Lezghian languages - Lezg. gada, Tsakh. gade etc. - which is a loan from Azer. gädä 'boy; beggar' < Pers.].
