Комментарий: The word is contaminating with the PL root for 'tongs' q.v. (Tab. uḳan q̇Ianc: means literally 'grass tongs'). Although this is obviously a folk-etymology, it creates problems for the precise reconstruction of the PL form.
Комментарий: Pharyngealization in Ag. is secondary - in front of an original front vowel, cf. dialectal forms: Bursh. qeqe-r, Burk. qeqe-f. Also regular is the shift *-ä- > -e- > -u- in a preaccented syllable after the uvular consonant.
Комментарий: Cf. also Lezg. Nüt. qIaIl. Obl. base *qIola- (Lezg. qile-, Tab. qIula-, Tsakh. /with vowel levelling/ qIalɨ-). 3d class in Rut. and Tsakh., 4th class in Bud.
Комментарий: Obl. base *qIan:a-, cf. Tsakh. (Gelm.) qIana-. 3d class in all class-distinguishing languages. Archi has a compound with qIipi- (see *p:eq).
Комментарий: In Tab. the root means 'a prop, support for grapevines' (probably from the original meaning 'prop, support (in general)'). The Tsakh. form (cf. also Gelm. qurok, Tsakh. prop. qurḱ) is an original locative (subessive) case in *-ƛ̣:; however, the vocalism and loss of pharyngealization are strange (perhaps qureḱ < *qeru-ƛ̣: with secondary depharyngealisation?).

Комментарий: Cf. also Lezg. Akht. q:üq:üm 'craw, goitre'. In Tab. and Ag. (cf. also Tab. Düb. q̇iq̇i, Ag. Bursh. q̇iq̇, Burk. q̇eq̇) the root means both 'throat' and 'top (of boot)'. Some irregularities (notably, the loss of glottalization in Lezg. and the weak reflex -q̇ in Ag. and Tab.) are explained by the roots reduplicated and expressive nature.
Комментарий: 3d class in Rut. and Tsakh. Ag. > Darg. Chir. qIunṭ 'snot'. It is not quite clear whether Bud. χiṭ 'saliva' should be also related to this root.
Значение:1 belly, stomach 2 inner membrane of stomach
Лезгинский:qurq 2
Арчинский:χIurχIu 1
Комментарий: Cf. Lezg. erg. qurq:u-ni. Arch. -r- points to PL *-l- (*-r- would be lost in this position). Lezg. does not reveal the expected effect of pharyngealization (qürq would be regularly expected) - probably because of secondary vowel reduction in forms like qurq:u-ni.
Комментарий: Cf. also Tab. lit. qIut(:), Düb. qIut:u, Ag. Tp. qIʷat:. These forms should be kept distinct from the reflexes of PL *qIan: q.v.; -t: in Tab. and Ag. most probably reflect the PL voiced *d typical for expressive roots.
Комментарий: Cf. also Tab. Düb. qIaqI, Ag. Fit. qIʷaqIʷ. Obl. base unknown (Lezg. qüq:ʷe- may point to *-a or -ä).
It is interesting to note that the compound *qIʷaqIʷ + *s:ɨw ('nose'+'mouth') served in Ag. as the word for 'face' (Ag. qIusi, Fit. qIusu, Burk. qessu with phonetic simplifications).
Комментарий: Obl. base *qɨsa- or *qɨsä- (to judge from Lezg. qsa-n, which must be treated as an archaic genitive). Weak *s on basis of Arch.(cf. plur. χos-ot).
