Protoform: *χ:VrV
Meaning: grass, hay; potion, poison; powder
Avar: χ:er
Chadakolob: χer
Comments: Av. paradigm C (χ:arí-l, Chad. χirí-l; pl. χ:úr-dul). Cf. also Av. χ:oró 'tops (of plants)', obviously derived from the same root. In Andian cf. perhaps Akhv. χ:ẽda miša 'meadow' (miša 'place'); χ:ẽda can be analyzed as a former plural < *χ:ir(V)-dV.
