Proto-North Caucasian: *HɨśɨwV (-ɫī)
Meaning: side
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. The stem contains an element *-ɫī (av. xibi-l, PC *žeb-lV, PD *š:a-li < *š:aw-li) which is present not in all languages and may be an old suffix. But if it is not, then this is one of several very rare cases of tetrasyllabic roots in PEC. Quite enigmatic is the Lak. form čul 'side' (why č-?).

Protoform: *ʔisib(V)
Meaning: 1 side 2 corner
Avar: xibíl 1
Chadakolob: šibíl 2
Andian language: isibo-l 1
Akhvakh: eše 1
Chamalal: isib / esib 1
Tindi: esaba 1
Karata: esebo 1
Botlikh: isib 1
Godoberi: isib 1
Comments: Av. paradigm B (xolbó-l, xalbá-l, Chad. šolbó-l, šalbá-l). Cf. also Akhv. Tseg., Tlan., Ratl. ešeb. The word for "near" in Cham. is a derivate of this root (esba-q:e). Note that the Av. lit. form here reflects *š-, while all other forms reflect *s; variation between *š and *s is typical for reflexes of *ś.

Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *s:ɨw
Meaning: 1 mouth 2 edge, end
Lezghian: siv 1
Tabasaran: uš̌ 2
Agul: siv 3
Tsakhur: siv 2
Kryz: siv 1
Budukh: siv 1
Archi: s:ob 1,2
Udi: oIš 2
Comment: Obl. base *s:ɨwɨ-, cf. Lezg. sivi-, Ag. sivi-, Tsakh. sivɨ-. Cf. also (for the reflexes of *s:) Tab. Düb. už̌u, Ag. Bursh. s:iw. Tab. and Ud. reflect a metathesised form *ʔɨs:ʷ (which may be archaic in the light of external evidence). Belongs to the 4th class in all class-distinguishing languages. Rutul has not preserved the root independently; but probably a trace of it has stayed in xe-sɨ-m ( < xex-sɨ(w)-) 'face' ('nose'+'mouth'). See Лексика 1971, 108; Талибов 1980, 314.

Proto-Basque: *ɦesu-ṙ
Meaning: bone

Low Navarrese: hezur
Salazarese: ezur
Lapurdian: hezur

Comments: Evidence for nasal only in RNC. Michelena (1961) reconstructs *enazur; but nasality in RNC may sometimes have other explanations. Cf. PEC *HɨśɨwV(-ɫī) 'side' ('rib' in Tsezian).
