Proto-North Caucasian: *χ_āɫV
Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
Meaning: sinew; thread
Proto-Nakh: *χāl
Proto-Tsezian: *χ:ɨlɔ
Proto-Lak: χ:al
Proto-Lezghian: *χ:al(a)
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. Seems quite plausible phonetically and semantically (the correlation "sinew" : "thread, wire" is usual). EC > Osset. xal / xalä 'thread', Balk. xalǝ id. (see Abayev 1989, 135).
