Proto-Lezghian: *ʔa(r)ḳɨ
Meaning: 1 to go 2 to drive, urge
Tsakhur: h-a=ḳan- 1
Archi: a=ḳa- 2
Comment: Cf. also Arch. dur. =arḳu-r. In Tsakh. the root forms the aorist and imperative part of the suppletive paradigm of the verb "to go". It is also used with another preverb (ʔ-) and the causative auxiliary verb -ās in the meaning 'to drive, urge' (aḳan-ās). Reasons for -n-conjugation in Tsakh. are not clear. Since there are no Ag. or Tab. forms, it is impossible to establish whether there was a medial *-r- in PL (external data, in particular, Dargwa, suggest such a possibility).
