Nakh etymology :

Proto-Nakh: *psarV
Meaning: 1 evening 2 yesterday 3 in the evening
Chechen: süjrē 1,sara-ħ3
Ingush: sajra1,sara-ħa3
Batsbi: psara 1, psare2
Comments: The Nakh forms reflect different locatives and derivates from the root *psar(V)- (not attested without suffixes). The root is also used in Bacb. si-psre(ħ) 'the day before yesterday' = Chech. sīsara, Ing. sijsara id. (etymology of the first part, PN *si-, is not quite clear - perhaps a dissimilation < *ši- 'two', lit. 'two evenings (ago)').

Abkhaz-Adyghe etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-West-Caucasian: *š́ʷǝ-Łʷa (~*śʷ-)
Meaning: 1 night 2 evening
Adyghe: -śħ 2
Kabardian: -śħa 2
Ubykh: šʷǝwá 1
Comments: The AK root is attested within the compound *pćǝħá-śħa 'evening' (Ad. pč́ǝħā-śħ, Kab. pśǝħa-śħa), where the first component by itself means probably 'dusk; sunset/sunrise' (see *bǝćʷǝ). Despite Shagirov (2, 27) the component śħa here means 'evening' by itself and has nothing to do with PAK *śħa 'head'. The correspondence PAK *śħa = Ub. šʷǝwá is exact and points unambiguously to PWC *śʷǝ-Łʷa. This stem itself is probably an old compound, with probable external parallels for both parts).
