Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *hIarq̇ɨ-
Meaning: broad, wide
Lezghian: härq̇ü
Tabasaran: jarq̇u
Agul: arq̇e-f
Rutul: aq̇Iur-dɨ
Tsakhur: aq̇Iɨ-n
Comment: In Tsakh. also 'far' (aq̇Ia-na). The Arch. form q̇ʷa(-t:u-t) 'wide', because of its phonetic peculiarity, is probably an early loanword from Lak. See Талибов 1980,307.

North Caucasian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-North Caucasian: *ɦărq̇Ĕ
Meaning: wide
Notes: A reconstruction *ɦărq̇wĔ is also possible (note that Lak. u-t:u- < *q̇ʷV-t:u-, as shown by an old Arch. loanword q̇ʷa-t:u- 'wide'). The initial weak syllable with laryngeal was dropped in PA and Lak., replaced by a reduplication syllable in PTs, and by class markers in Darg. and early WC (whence PWC *b-). In general the root seems quite reliably reconstructable for PNC. See Абдоков 1983, 144.

Comments: PGB *q̇eq̇-iju (cf. also Bezht. Tlad. q̇eq̇q̇ö). Bokarev has Gunz. q̇ǝq̇u, which must be a misrecording.
