Basque etymology :

Proto-Basque: *ordu (*o=rdu)
Meaning: 1 time 2 hour 3 occasion
Bizkaian: ordu 1, 2
Gipuzkoan: ordu 2
High Navarrese: ordu 2
Low Navarrese: ordu 2
Lapurdian: ordu 2
Zuberoan: ordu 2, 3
Roncalese: ordu 2
Comments: Origin from Lat. ordō ‘line, row, series, order’ has been suggested but is problematic. Cf. instead PNC *ƛăjV 'time, day', Burushaski *j=ult 'time, right moment', *b=ultu 'day', with Bsq *-rd- in regular correspondence with PNC *ƛ and Bur *-lt-.

North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *ƛăjV
Meaning: time, day
Proto-West Caucasian: *ʎ́V Notes: An interesting Av.-And.-WC isogloss; parallels in other languages are as yet unknown. Abdokov (1983, 95) cites also Chech. se-lχa-na 'yesterday' (the etymology of which see under *rVmƛ_Ă) and Kryz. išɨʁ 'light' (which is obviously a recent Turkic loanword). The Av.-And. form is compared by Abdokov with WC *ʎʷV 'light, white', which seems less probable for phonetic reasons.

Abkhaz-Adyghe etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-West-Caucasian: *ʎ́V
Meaning: 1 year 2 day
Abkhaz: š́ǝ- 2
Abaza: š́ǝ- 2
Adyghe: jǝ-ʎa-s 1
Kabardian: jǝ-ʎa-s 1
Comments: PAT *š́ǝ- in compounds: Abkh. á-š́ǝ-bž́, Abaz. š́ǝ-bž́a-n 'noon' ( < *š́ǝ-bǝža, see *bǝža 'half'); Abkh. á-š́ǝ-ž́ 'morning', Abaz. š́až́ǝ 'early in the morning'. In the AK word (*jǝ-ʎá-sǝ) jǝ- is a pronominal prefix; meaning of the final component (-sǝ) is not quite clear (cf. *-sa in *pá-sa 'early'?). Shagirov's (1, 185) hypothesis of a Turk. origin seems, anyway, very improbable.
The original meaning of the root is not clear ('time' in general?). Note that the corresponding root in Avaro-Andian languages has the same range of meanings.
