Proto-Eskimo: *unir- (~ -j-)
Meaning: to disappear, caus. to leave behind, to miss
Russian meaning: исчезать, кауз. оставлять, пропускать, промахиваться
Comments: This root and *unǝɣ-(tǝ-) have semantically similar derivatives, but in this case the causative meaning is rather 'to leave behind by missing, or to allow sth. to disappear', while the meaning of the causative formation from *unǝɣ-(tǝ-) is rather 'to leave behind sbd. who was slowly moving'.
