Праенисейский: *tu(ʔ) ( ~ *c-)
Значение: bow-string
Кетский: qʌ́q-tut (Werner 2, 145)
Югский: tut́, pl. tuŋ (Кастр.)
Коттский: gij-tu (Бол.)
Аринский: kej-tu (Лоск.)
Примечания: ССЕ 214. Kott. and Arin reflect a compound with *χɨʔǯ "bow" (q.v.) as the first component. The Yug form was explained in КС 222 as a reduplication, with a regular dissimilation tut́ < *t́ut́, with a resulting reconstruction *cu(ʔ) / *cuc. Other explanations are, however, possible: a) Werner (2, 293) suggests a compound *thu-t'ǝ, with the second component = Ket. tiʔ 'rope'; this does not seem quite convincing, basically because Yug -t' is unexplained (the corresponding Yug form is tiʔ, see Werner 2, 267 and *tiʔ); b) if the Yug form is in reality tu:(h)t́ (assuming Castren's recording is incorrect), we can think of a contracted compound *tu(ʔ)-χɨʔǯ, with the same χɨʔǯ, but as the second element of compound in Ket and Yug. qʌ́q- ( = qʌʔq-) in the Ket form recorded by Werner is interpreted by him as qʌʔq 'corner, angle'.
