Comment: Different grades of the PL Ablaut paradigm (*ʔiqI:ʷä-/*ʔäqI:ʷa-/*ʔoqI:ʷä-) are reflected in different languages (all three grades simultaneously are present in Archi: qIe-s /*ʔiqI:ʷä-/, dur. orqIi-r /*ʔoqI:ʷä-/ 'go', h-erqIa-s /*ʔäqI:ʷa-/ 'go, walk'). The Ag. form varies across dialects: Rich. baI-, Tp.,Bursh. waI-, Fit. ʁIʷa-. In the prohibitive form (meaning in Ag. both "do not go" and "do not be, become") the root consonant either loses labialisation (Bursh. maR̀a), or acquires nasalisation (Rich. maIma). In Budukh č-a=ʁ- is durative, tu=ʁ- ( = Kryz. tuʁ-) - terminative; cf. also Kryz. q:-äʁ- 'to bring (from below)', ʕ-uʁ- 'to bring (from above)' ( = Bud. ʕu=ʁ- id.).

North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *=HimG_wV

Meaning: to go, walk

Proto-Avaro-Andian: *q̇:Vq̇:ʷVn-

Proto-Tsezian: *=o( ̃)qʷ- B (~-e-)

Proto-Lezghian: *ʔiqI:ʷä-

Proto-Khinalug: -ʁi

Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. One is tempted to compare also PN *ʁo-, the present (durative) stem from *-aχ- 'to go', but this raises phonetic problems.

The PC and Av. forms (as well as PL Ablaut grade *ʔoqI:ʷä-) reflect a PEC Ablaut grade *-HumG_wV; in Av. the root is reduplicated.
