Notes and references: ЭСКЯ 75-76, EWK 108. Сравнение с СК материалом (ПАК *t:ǝʁa "солнце", см. Климов 1 1969, 289) должно быть отвергнуто, поскольку адыгская форма, несомненно, восходит к ПЗК *(mV-)rǝʁa < ПСК *wirǝ̄q̇_Ă 'солнце' (см. NCED 1051-1052); точно так же сомнительно сравнение с ПН *dē 'день': эта форма надежно выводится из ПВК *rīhV 'время, день' (NCED 952). Иллич-Свитыч (ОСНЯ 221) сравнивает ПК *dɣe- с ПИЕ *dheiǝ- 'видеть' ( < ностр. *dIGa 'светлый'), что сомнительно семантически. Наиболее вероятной представляется связь с ПИЕ *dei(e)-n- "день", *deiǝ- 'сверкать, блестеть' < ностр. *tIɣV; в картв. нужно предполагать ассимиляцию *dɣe- < *tɣe-, что вполне вероятно.
