Proto-North Caucasian: *neʎ_wV ( ~ *ʎ_wenV)
Meaning: a k. of small fruit or berry
Notes: An And-Lezg. isogloss. Y.Testelets suggests to compare also Tsez. eʎu (possibly < PTs *ʔɨ̃ʎu 'bilberry'. This would rather favour a reconstruction like *Hʎ_wenV; but the difference between the root structure in Tsez. and PA is still to be explained.
