Proto-Yenisseian: *tɨp-
Meaning: precipice
Ket: tɨ̄, pl. tɨ̄ŋ
Yug: tɨfǝl, pl. tɨfǝlɨŋ
Comments: ССЕ 286. Werner 2, 306, 312, with some confusion: reconstructs *thɨphǝl on p. 312, but on p. 306 suggests a compound *thɨ + *phǝl, where none of the components is explained. One cannot reconstruct *tɨ on the basis of the Ket form: the latter plainly goes back to *tɨpV-, as shown by Yug.
