Tsezian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Tsezian: *ƛ̣[a]lu
Meaning: 1 stone 2 trap
Tsezi: ƛ̣ul-uq̇ 2
Ginukh: ƛ̣al 1
Khvarshi: ƛ̣ar 2
Bezhta: ƛ̣alo 1
Gunzib: ƛ̣ɔlu 1
Comments: PTsKh *ƛ̣aR (the semantic shift 'stone' > 'trap' /probably through 'stone plate, lid'/ is rather common, cf., e.g. the development of PEC *q̇wiɫV 'rock, stone' in Andian languages). PGB *ƛ̣ɔlu (-ɔ- is not quite clear: -a- would be normally expected).

Avar-Andian etymology :

Protoform: *ƛ̣alV
Meaning: 1 rock, rocky plateau 2 layer 3 lid 4 (paper) leaf
Avar: ṭálu 1, ṭalá 2
Chadakolob: ṭalá 3
Andian language: lala 3
Akhvakh: ƛ̣ala 3
Tindi: ala 3,4
Karata: ƛ̣ala 4
Comments: Av. ṭalú has paradigm C (ṭalú-l, ṭála-bi); ṭalá - paradigm B (ṭalá-dul, ṭul-bí; Chad. ṭoló-l / ṭilí-l, ṭalá-l / ṭulá-l). Av. ṭalá has several meanings: "layer; bee-hive; chimney; floor, tier" (cf. also Kuyad. ala 'chimney' pointing to *ƛ̣ in Proto-Avar). The whole variety of meanings in Avar and Andian languages must be explained by the original semantics "flat stone, stone layer".

Certainly not borrowed in Mong. from Turk., despite Щербак 1997, 154. Counterarguments against the etymology by Doerfer (TMN 2, 437-438) are not convincing. altet-prnum,altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-turc,altet-mong,altet-tung,altet-kor,altet-jap,altet-reference,
