North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *ṭHam[q]V
Meaning: arc, bow
Notes: Not very certain, because in PN the root is present only within a compound (and underwent irregular changes; especially unclear is the medial -r-). The Darg.-Tab. isogloss is of course secure, but the PEC antiquity of the root is somewhat dubious.

Nakh etymology :

Proto-Nakh: *darʁa
Meaning: arc (of a bow)
Chechen: ʕad-darʁa
Ingush: ʕad-darʁa
Comments: A compound with the first part *ʡāṭɦ 'bow' (q.v.). 4th class in both languages. One wonders if the Avar form gazárʁo 'bow' does not reflect a compound (for the first part cf. gazá 'hoe'?) with an old borrowing from Nakh (gazarʁo < *gaz-darʁo).

Malto : tonqe "to bend, bend the knees slightly while dancing"
Notes : Во всех остальных корнях с начальным *ṭ- оно, несомненно, вторично и возникло в результате ассимиляции с инлаутным ретрофлексным; это наводит нас на мысль, что в данном корне запись ṭ- в курух ошибочна (ср. малто, где начальный смычный не ретрофлексный).
