Proto-Eskimo: *qiŋǝ-ciɣ-
Meaning: to look sideways moving only the eyes
Russian meaning: смотреть искоса, бегать глазами
Proto-Yupik: *qiŋǝciɣ-
Proto-Inupik: *qikci-ɣ-
Comments: See *qiŋǝ- ~ *qijŋǝ- 'to watch closely, to roll eyes'. In CED this stem is unjustifiedly confused with *qikǝ- (-cuɣ-) 'unsure, embarrassed', a root which is actually related to *qik-aʁ- 'to loiter, to do nothing'.
