Proto-Tsezian: *č̣eḳʷ-
Meaning: hooked, curved
Tsezi: č̣igʷa-si (Radzhibov)
Khvarshi: č̣egʷa-na (Radzhibov)
Bezhta: č̣eḳ-dijö (Tlad.)
Gunzib: č̣eḳ-du
Comments: PTsKh *č̣egʷ- (with dissimilation); PGB *č̣eḳ- (with an adjective suffixation). The aberrant Inkh. č̣uḳ 'door hook' can not correspond phonetically to PGB *č̣eḳ- and is most probably a Nakh loanword.
