Proto-North Caucasian: *HmVG_V̄
Meaning: thirst, to be thirsty

Avar-Andian etymology :

Protoform: *hanq̇:- / *q̇:in-
Meaning: 1 thirst 2 to be thirsty 3 greedy
Avar: q̇:eč 1
Andian language: q̇:inni-b 3
Akhvakh: ãq̇:ež- 2
Chamalal: hãḳaze 1
Tindi: hanq̇:až- 2
Karata: hanq̇:ež- 2
Botlikh: q̇:in-da- 3
Godoberi: q̇:ini-bu 3
Comments: Most languages reflect stem I *hanq̇:- (~ -o-) with expressive suffixes *-ž-/*-č- (Av. q̇:eč, q̇:ečé-ze is contracted < *HVnq̇:e-č-; -ḳ- in Cham. is irregular, possibly a misspelling). Cf. also Akhv. Tseg., Tlan. aq̇:ač-, Kar. Tok. hinq̇:iš:- (with yet another expressive suffix, probably also present in a reduplicated form: God. q̇:inq̇:iš:i 'miser, greedy man'). Stem II *q̇:in- is reflected in And., Botl. and God. with the meaning 'greedy' (for the semantics cf. Russ. жажда - жадный et al.).

Proto-Lezghian: *muq̇:V
Meaning: 1 greedy 2 thirsty
Tabasaran: muq:i 1
Agul: muq:u-ruχ 1
Archi: muq̇:á-t:u 2
Comment: The printed version of the MSU recordings has Ag. muq̇ruχ (opposed to the previous recording muq:uruχ), which is probably a misspelling. -uχ is an expressive suffix.
