Lak etymology :

Lak root: =aṭi-
Meaning: to gather
Lak form: =aṭi-n
Comments: G. pr. =a=ṭu-n. Cf. Khosr. =aṭi-n id. An old derivate (reflecting the archaic meaning 'to bind') is probably Lak. buṭa 'rope'.

North Caucasian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-North Caucasian: *jeṭal-
Meaning: to tie, bind; untie
Proto-West Caucasian: *ṭa Notes: The semantic change 'to bind' > 'to gather' is natural, and the etymology seems satisfactory. One can also compare Av. baṭárhin 'woollen belt, strap' (although the morphological structure of this derivate is not quite clear). See Abdokov 1983, 126-127 (citing also an Av. verb b-uṭine 'to be tied' which we were unable to identify).

Altaic etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Altaic: *tàĺbe
Meaning: harness
Russian meaning: упряжь
Comments: In Turk. one would expect *-ɨ-; the reflex -u- is probably due to the effect of the original labial in -ĺb-. Note that some forms (Tat., Bashk., Yak.) actually reflect *-ɨ-, so perhaps for PT one should rather assume here a form like *dɨĺo-.
