\data\cauc\nakhet
Proto-Nakh: *darʁa
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: arc (of a bow)
Chechen: ʕad-darʁa
Ingush: ʕad-darʁa
Comments: A compound with the first part *ʡāṭɦ 'bow' (q.v.). 4th class in both languages. One wonders if the Avar form gazárʁo 'bow' does not reflect a compound (for the first part cf. gazá 'hoe'?) with an old borrowing from Nakh (gazarʁo < *gaz-darʁo).
