Proto-North Caucasian: *lĕḳV ( ~ ɫ-)
Meaning: grain, fruit stone
Notes: The phonetic and semantic correlation between the PEC and PWC forms is quite satisfactory. The PWC form, however, may also correspond to another PEC root with the same scope of meaning (see *ɦămḳi 'grain, fruit-stone). We must wait for some new evidence to resolve this question.

Basque etymology :

Proto-Basque: *leka
Meaning: 1 pod, husk 2 sheath (for knife)
Bizkaian: leka 1, 2
Gipuzkoan: leka 1
High Navarrese: leka 1
Low Navarrese: leka 1
Lapurdian: leka 1
Zuberoan: leka 1

Comments: Some (e.g. Trask 1997: 308) derive *leka < Lat. thēca 'case, envelope'. Some Bsq dialects have teka (BZK), theka (BNV,ZBR) 'pod, husk'. Possibly both words, of distinct origin, have partially merged.
