Protoform: *c̣:Vq̇:V

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: very, strongly

Avar: c̣aq̇:

Chadakolob: c̣aq̇

Comments: The lit. Av. form is dissimilated < *c̣:aq̇: (weak *c̣ would give č̣ in Chad.). Av. c̣aq̇: > Cham. c̣aq̇:, Inkh., Gin., Bezht., Gunz. c̣aq̇. Tsez. c̣aq̇-tow 'very'.

Protoform: *c̣:VrV

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: ice

Avar: c̣:er

Chadakolob: c̣er

Comments: Paradigm C (c̣:oró-l, c̣:úr-dul, c̣:éra-l). Cf. also the derived adjective "cold": Av. lit. c̣:oróra-b, Chad. c̣ororab.

The word is isolated in Av., but has probable external correspondences.

Avar: c̣:ʷáki 1

Akhvakh: c̣:ʷaka 1

Chamalal: c̣aka 3 (Gig.)

Tindi: c̣akʷa 2

Comments: Cf. also Av. c̣:ʷák- 'to glitter' (c̣:ʷáki 'brilliance' is formally a verbal derivate). The Tind. form has an irregular c̣- (c:- would be expected) and metathesis of labialisation.

Avar: c̣:úja-b

Chadakolob: c̣ʷíja-b

Comments: Cf. also Av. Andal. c̣:uj 'woman'. The Av. word for woman, č̣:užu, is a compound (with assimilation) < *c̣:u + žo (žo 'thing'), lit. 'female being'. The word is isolated in Av., but has reliable external parallels. Av. > Bezht., Gunz. c̣ujab 'female'.

Comments: Av. paradigm C (c̣ulá-l, c̣úla-l; Chad. č̣ulí-l, č̣úla-l). Cf. also Cham. Gad. lulu, Gig. c̣uli 'whip'. In Cham. Gig. the word c̣uli also means 'staff', but the U.-Gakv. dialect has c̣ulli 'staff'- a suffixed form of the same root.

Protoform: *c̣ulV-bVƛ̣:V

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: nut, walnut

Avar: c̣uláƛ̣:o

Chadakolob: č̣onóƛ̣:-ħonó

Chamalal: c̣ulibeƛ̣:a (Gig)

Tindi: c̣ulaƛ̣:a

Karata: c̣ulaƛ̣:i (Arch.)

Comments: The word is an old compound *c̣ulV 'tree, wood' (q.v.) + *bVƛ̣:V 'nut', as it is clearly seen from the Cham. form (c̣ulibaƛ̣:a in Bokaryov's notation). Kar. (prop.) c̣ulaƛ̣:o is probably a loan from Av. The Av. Chad. form is a secondary compound (with ħonó 'egg'); -n- is a result of dissimilation ( < *c̣oloƛ̣).

Protoform: *č̣aʔV (~ -o-)

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: home-brewed beer

Avar: č̣aʕá

Tindi: č̣ā

Protoform: *č̣aba

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: 1 clay 2 mud, slush 3 earthen floor

Avar: č̣abár 3

Andian language: č̣ab-χi 1,2

Akhvakh: č̣abari 1 (Ratl.)

Chamalal: č̣aba 3

Tindi: č̣aba 2

Comments: Av. paradigm C (č̣arbí-l, č̣árba-l). -r in Av. (cf. also Akhv. Ratl. č̣aba-ri 'clay') in Akhv. reflects a suffix (probably plural). Cf. also Cham. (U.-Gakv.) č̣abar 'earth', Tind. č̣abar 'floor' - obviously borrowed from Avar.
