Basque etymology :

Proto-Basque: *onća
Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
Meaning: well (adv.), good, benefit (n.)
Low Navarrese: ontsa, untsa
Lapurdian: ontsa
Zuberoan: úntsa
Comments: Association with *hon 'good' is secondary. ZBR has no aspirate in this word, though it does in hun ‘good’ and derivates like húnki ‘good deed, benefit’, húntze ‘to improve’, etc. The supposed “adverb-forming suffix" -sa is unique to this word, casting doubt on its reality. Cf. instead PEC *ʡV(n)ǯV 'good'.
