Lezghian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Lezghian: *ʔarq̇I:ä-
Meaning: 1 to see 2 to watch, look 3 to be found
Tabasaran: raqI:- 1
Agul: raqI:a- 1 (Bursh)
Rutul: g-a=q:a- 2
Kryz: irq- 1
Budukh: irq- 1
Udi: b-aʁIa-jesun 3
Comment: The Kryz. and Bud. form reflect the PL Ablaut grade *ʔirq̇I:ä-; the Auslaut *ä is reconstructed on basis of Ag. (Bursh. raqI:a-s) and Rut. (g-aq:a-s, pl. ga-q:e-s). Not quite clear is the loss of pharyngealization in Rut. See Хайдаков 1973, 121.

North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *=Hārq̇_V(n)
Meaning: to see, to find
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. Both PL and PD reflect also the Ablaut grade *=Hirq̇_V(n). Reasons for conjugation variation (-0 and -n) are not yet clear. Cf. also Hurr. tiɣ-an- (causative) 'to show' ( < PHU *tiχ-), where t- reflects *r (see Diakonoff-Starostin 1986, 29).

Dargwa etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Dargwa: *=ahI-
Meaning: see
Akusha: če=iʔ-
Chiragh: =aIh-
Comments: Cf. also Ur. =aʔ-/=iʔ-. In Chir. the verb has the dur. stem =alhI-, fut. =arhI- and belongs to the -n-conjugation; thus the precise nature of the PD paradigm is not yet clear (in particular, not clear are reasons for the loss of the Inlaut resonant -r- in most forms).
