Пралезгинский: *mi(l)tV-
Значение: wedding
Крызский: mitfar
Будухский: mitker
Комментарий: 4th class in both languages. The Shakhdagh word presupposes a protoform like *mi(l)tV-ƛʷar. The second part of it is probably the same as in *ʎ:an:ɨ-ƛʷar 'spring' (opposed to *ʎ:an: 'summer' in Tab. xadu-kar : xad, Lezg. gat-far : gad; cf. also Ag. Bursh. šir-kʷar, Khud. š:ir-kʷar 'spring').
The root *mi(l)tV- can also be reflected in Tab. sumčir (Düb. sumčar) 'wedding' - which may be analysed as a reduction < *susu-mčir < *s:ʷes:V-mitir lit. "bride-wedding".
