Comments:ССЕ 191. Kottish must have had a later Anlaut reduction (otherwise one would expect *šaŋ) in the form *ǝča-ŋ (originally plur. "guests"). Werner 1, 432 criticizes the connection of the Kottish and Ket form. The latter is given as ɨ́tɨkaj / ɨ́tɨɣaj and is derived from *ʔɨtaq 'place where a house was before' + kʌʔj 'to go'. The real situation, however, appears to be much more complicated - as shown by Werner's own data. We should start with the opposition Ket. ʌ́ŋtakkaj 'zu Besuch in mehreren Birkenrindenzelten sein' : ɨ́tɨkaj 'zu Besuch nur in einem Birkenrindenzelt sein' (Werner 2, 408). We can clearly see here a compound with the 1st element ɨ- / pl. ʌŋ- - which is most probably identifiable with Ket. ʌŋn, Kott. hagī-ni 'inner tent pole' (see *hǝgV-). The Yug form ʌ́ŋŋej 'to pay a visit', ʌ́ŋŋejsi 'guest' is thus a secondary assimilated form corresponding to Ket ʌ́ŋtakkaj, thus the reconstruction of PY *ʔǝŋ- 'guest' on its basis appears now to be incorrect. Ket -ta- / -tɨ- is the element, most probably corresponding to Kott. čaŋ and thus properly means 'be a guest, visitor'. On the final element of the compound see under *gaj 'to return', so the meaning of the whole compound *hǝgV-ča(ŋ)-gaj is 'to return as a guest to the (birchbark) tent place'. There is still a phonetic problem: the word for 'place where there was a tent' in Yug is recorded by Werner (2, 432) as ɨ́taχ with -t- instead of the expected -t́-; However, a form ɨt́ɨɣajś 'guest' is also recorded (ibid.), so we can suppose a misrecording.
Proto-Yenisseian:*ʔǝde(xV)
Meaning:grey, green
Ket:ʌ́rej 'grey'
Kottish:oreäk, ureäk 'green'
Comments:Werner 2, 352, 409, 410 (without comparison and reconstruction).
Proto-Yenisseian:*ʔǝj- (~x-)
Meaning:bullet
Ket:ʌjdiś, pl. -n5 (North.)
Comments:Werner 2, 401 (without reconstruction).
Proto-Yenisseian:*ʔǝje (~x-)

Ket:ъ̄je1 (Bak.)
Comments:Werner 2, 419 (without reconstruction).
Proto-Yenisseian:*ʔǝj-pi
Meaning:berry (of currant)
Ket:ʌji5
Yug:ʌjfɨ5
Comments:ССЕ 191. A compound with *pi "berry". Werner 2, 401 *ǝj-phi.
Comments:ССЕ 191. Werner's (1, 406) analysis as ʌm 'thorny' + as' 'feather' is very dubious - primarily because nothing like ʌm thorny is attested (Werner adduces a form ʌ́ntaveroś 'thorny', in no way pointing to *ʌm: it obviously contains the same root as Ket. ʌ:ndɔ 'to prick', see under *ʔVq-).
Proto-Yenisseian:*ʔǝn-
Meaning:to rasp, scrape, shave
Ket:ʌn-tij6, (Werner 2, 406) ʌ́ń-tij
Comments:Werner 2, 406; despite КС..., not connected with *ʔǝq- 'stick in'.
Comments:ССЕ 203. Ket and Yug data in Werner 2, 417-418 allow to make the reconstruction more precise: instead of *ʔVK- we can now reconstruct *ʔǝq-. However, the reconstruction <*ǝqǝt> proposed by Werner is valid only for Ket and Yug: Kottish forms (d́agei, imp. d́egeä) clearly show that *-t is a suffixed morpheme. Note that Werner presents a "double" etymology: elsewhere (1, 220) he compares the Kottish verb to Ket ĺaktej 'close one's eyes' and reconstructs <*ʎak-> - hardly convincing and incompatible with the reconstruction *ǝqǝt in 2, 418.
Comments:ССЕ 204. A complex verb: for the second part of the compound (both Ket and Kott.) see *ǯ[e]χV. Werner (2, 417) analyzes the first part as 'branch(es)' (see *ʔǝqe), which is not completely impossible, but dubious (cf. different vowels in Kott. oge 'branch' and ax-čex 'stick into').
