North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *q̇_HwVlV (~-ɫ-)
Meaning: heel; ankle
Notes: A Tsez.-Lezg. isogloss, therefore not enough data for vocalic reconstruction. The comparison seems, nevertheless, quite probable; initial *mo- in PL is secondary - probably under analogy with body part names like *morkol 'finger/toe'.

Proto-Lezghian: *moq̇Iol
Meaning: 1 heel 2 foot, kick
Lezghian: q̇ül 2
Rutul: maq̇Ili 1 (Ikhr.)
Tsakhur: mɨq̇Iĺɨ
Comment: Cf. also Tsakh. Gelm. muq̇Ile, Tsakh. muq̇Iule 'heel'. The Rut. and Tsakh. forms have a suffixed *-j (cf. Tsakh. obl. mɨq̇Iĺɨjɨ-); loss of *mo- in Lezg. is regular. 3d class in Rut. and Tsakh.
