Proto-Lezghian: *ʔirχIʷa
Meaning: 1 to play 2 dice play 3 laugh, joke
Agul: d-ürüX̀- 1
Rutul: χIʷa-n 2
Archi: iχI 3
Comment: Cf. also Ag. Tp. d-urħa-s 'to play', Arch. iχI-erkurt:u 'funny' (showing the morphonemic weakness of χI). Rutul reflects a derivate *ʔirχIʷa-n (with reduction of the first weak syllable).
