North Caucasian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-North Caucasian: *ʔăʒ_Ĕ (~ -ǝ̆-,-ŏ-)
Meaning: to be ill, feel pain
Proto-West Caucasian: *źV Notes: A rather widely represented common NC root. The etymology on the whole seems quite satisfactory, but there are some irregularities: in PD we would rather expect *z, not *c:. We may think that the root consonant here was expressively geminated (PD *ʔizz- > *ʔicc:-), and indeed we see traces of this gemination in Ak. izz-es, izz-ala. It is even possible that the gemination occurred as early as in Proto-Darg.-Lezg. - cf. a quite analogous gemination in Rut. =ädda- (normally -d- would be expected). Cf. also Hurr. azz-u/ošχǝ 'tabooed, impure, sinful, sick (or the like)', see Diakonoff-Starostin 1986, 40.
See Abdokov 1983, 136.

Proto-Lezghian: *ʔac̣:a

Tabasaran: ic:-ru xuz
Agul: it:-ar xas
Rutul: =ädda-
Kryz: tit-
Budukh: tut-kar-
Archi: =ac̣:a-r
Comment: Cf. also Ag. Bursh. it:-aj xis. The stem demonstrates the PL *a/*i Ablaut (ä in Rut. is not quite clear) and belongs to the weak conjugation class; the Kryz. and Bud. forms are reduplicated. Tab. and Ag. have preserved only participial forms combined with auxiliary verbs. Cf. also the PL derivate *jic̣:al(a) 'sickness, disease, pain': Lezg. ṭal, Ag. it:al, Rut. jaddal (Shin. jatal, Mükhr. jed:al, Mishl. jadal). See Бокарев 1961, 71; Лексика 1971, 135; Гигинейшвили 1977, 107.

Abkhaz-Adyghe etymology :

Abaza: zʕʷa 2
Adyghe: wǝzǝ 2
Kabardian: wǝz 2
Ubykh: źa-ʁʷá 2
Comments: PAT *zVʕʷV; PAK *wǝ-zǝ (*wǝ- is a frequent verbal prefix). For PWC we can also reconstruct a compound *źV-ʁʷV (besides the listed forms cf. also Kab. wǝzǝʁʷa = wǝzǝ); the second part (*-ʁʷV) is not quite clear etymologically (it can be attributed to several PWC roots).

Tamil derivates : acarttu (acartti-) to cause to be drowsy or sluggish; acati drowsiness; acappu inattentiveness, absence of mind; acāvu (acāvi-) to droop, languish, grow slack; acā languor, faintness; acai (-v-, -nt-) to be weary, exhausted, grow feeble, walk or ride slowly; acaivu weariness, exhaustion; añar (-v-, -nt-) to be lazy, slothful; n. mental distress, disease; ayar (-v-, -nt-) to lose consciousness (as in fainting, sleep, drunkenness), become weary, forget; (-pp-, -tt-) to forget; ayarcci, ayarti languor, faintness, forgetfulness; ayarppu, ayarvu forgetfulness; ayā languor, faintness; ayāvu (ayāvi-) to be distressed; añcal laziness, sloth
Malayalam : aśati

Tulu : ajakè

Tulu derivates : ? āsarụ thirst, that which slakes thirst
Notes : As is often the case, there may be several roots confused in this DED entry; the most dubious forms are those in which Tamil has a palatal nasal (añar, añcal), because that would mean the original form is *anǯ-, although no other SDR languages show any forms with the nasal. The difference in semantics is also striking: "faint, drowsy, weary" vs. "lazy, slothful". The rest of the forms, however, are hard to separate from each other.
