North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *ŁaɦV
Meaning: soot; charcoal
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *laʔi Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. The root is not very widely spread, but phonetically and semantically the comparison seems satisfactory. A strange form is Darg. Chir. ɣanta 'charcoal': it can not go back to PD *k:a (k:- would be expected in Chir.), and it does not correspond regularly to Tsakh. ɣadɨr (thus a separate root can not be postulated): perhaps it is a loanword from some Lezgian language (e.g., the Lezg. counterpart of Tsakh. ɣadɨr would be *ɣat:V(r)).
