Proto-Tsezian: *=eḳʷ-
Meaning: 1 to fall 2 to gather, to (be) put together
Khvarshi: =eḳ- 1
Inkhokvari: =eḳʷ- 1
Bezhta: =oḳ- 2
Gunzib: =oḳ- 2
Comments: PTsKh *=eḳʷ- ( ~ -ö-); PGB *=oḳ-. In Bezht. the intransitive verb is usually compound: =iḳo =oḳ- (where =iḳo is another Ablaut grade of the same verb). Cf. also the derivate: Gunz. r-oḳali 'rake' ('tool for gathering, raking up'); perhaps also PGB *g-uḳ- (Bezht., Gunz. g-uḳ-) 'to put on (hat, cap)'.
