Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *χ:ʷɨ(r)k
Meaning: 1 tree 2 forest
Rutul: χuk 1
Archi: χ:ʷak 2
Comment: Cf.also Arch. loc. χ:ʷak:a (characteristic for the reflex of *-k-). Medial *-r- can not be reconstructed on Lezgian ground (*-r- disappears before velars both in Rut. and Arch.), but has to be supposed on external evidence.

North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *χwɨ̄rk_V
Meaning: tree, oak-tree
Notes: An Av.-Lezg. isogloss. Probable, but represented only in three languages, and thus not very reliable (note also phonetic problems: if we reconstruct medial *-r-, as suggested by the Av. form, we would rather expect *χʷ, not *χ:ʷ in PL).
