Proto-Lezghian: *mos:Vra (~ -s-)
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: goat (more than 1 y. old)
Tsakhur: mɨswa / muswa
Comment: Cf. also Gelm., Tsakh. mɨswa id. The position of -s- before -w- ( < *-r-) does not allow to choose among *-s:- or *-s- for PL (in Tsakh. the opposition in tenseness is neutralized before consonants). 3d class. The root is attested only in Tsakh., but has probable external parallels.

Proto-Yenisseian: *sēr1e

Meaning: deer
Ket: śɛĺ4 (South.), Kur. śɛ:ĺi4, Bak., Sur. śɛ:ĺǝ4; pl. śɛʔn

Kottish: šeli, *šele, *šeĺe, g. šelā, pl. šetn "wild animal"
Arin: sin (М., Сл. Кл.,) "deer (cervus)"
Pumpokol: sálat (Сл.) "deer (rangifer)"
Comments: ССЕ 272. For PY one can reconstruct the plural form *seʔn ( < *sēr1-n?), to which, in particular, we can trace Ar. sin. Werner 2, 183 <*seʔǝʎǝ, pl. *seʔn> (the statement that *seʔǝʎǝ is an old compound is disputable because the components are not specified).
