Proto-Lezghian: *wɨ(r)χ:I(a)
Meaning: 1 mountain goat 2 id. (generic name)
Rutul: juχI (Khnov.)
Archi: boχI
Comment: For strong *χ:I cf. Arch. erg. baχ:Ia. Rut. juχI (a form from the Khnov dialect) < *wiχI < *wɨχ:I. Medial *-r- can be reconstructed on external evidence (both Arch. and Rut. do not preserve it before uvulars).
