Proto-North Caucasian: *čɦVm-jĕrƛ̣_wV
Meaning: whip
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. A very complicated case. It is probable that the word is a PEC compound, and it is possible to decipher PEC *jĕrƛ̣_wV 'belt, leather strap' in its second part. The first part, in that case, can be reconstructed approximately as *čɦVm(V)-, but it is difficult to identify this morpheme with any independent EC root. The original polyconsonantal structure *čɦVm-jĕrƛ̣_wV, having an expressive meaning ("whip"), naturally underwent very complicated and irregular changes in most daughter-languages.

Protoform: *čʷanƛ̣:il (/ žʷ-)
Meaning: whip
Andian language: č̣:artil
Akhvakh: čiƛ̣:e
Chamalal: ṣajṭã
Tindi: žʷanƛ̣:al
Karata: žʷarƛ̣:el
Godoberi: žorƛ̣:in
Comments: Cf. also Akhv. Tseg., Tlan. čanƛ̣:el, Ratl. činƛ̣:el, Cham. Gig. c̣aṭan, Kar. Tok. žorƛ̣:i. The word, because of its initially complicated phonetic structure, demonstrates rather complicated assimilational / dissimilational processes: dissimilation -ƛ̣:- > -ṭ- (before the final *-l) in And. and Cham., with shift of the tenseness feature to the initial consonant (Cham. ṣajṭã < *č̣:arṭan < *čarƛ̣:al; in And. - with further dissimilation č̣:arṭil > č̣:artil); voicing *č- > ž- in Tind., Kar. and God. Tind. > Inkh. žʷanƛ̣el.

Proto-Dargwa: *ʔaIrčuma[k:]
Meaning: whip
Akusha: ʕaIrčumag
Chiragh: č̣umaq̇I
Comments: Cf. also Mek. aIrč̣umaq, Gapsh. ʕarčumaɣ, Kub. aIrčmaIk, Kharb. alčumag, Tsud. aIrčimah. Correspondences are somewhat distorted because of the word's complicated phonemic structure and expressive meaning. Loss of the initial syllable in Chirag may be secondary, or may be explained by Lezghian influence (see below).
