Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔoq- (~x-,-ɔ-)

Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology

Meaning: to smear, rub

Ket: ɔqtij⁶ 'to smear (with clay)', ɔqtet⁵ 'to rub'

Yug: ɔxtet́ 'to rub'

Comments: ССЕ 198. Werner 2, 45.

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔɔgde / *ʔɔqtV

Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology

Meaning: ear

Ket: ɔgde⁵, pl. -n⁶ "ear"; ɔqtǝn⁶, pl. ɔqtɨnǝŋ⁵ "ear-ring"

Yug: ɔgdɔnɨŋ⁶ "ear-rings"; ɔxtɨŋ⁶, pl. ɔxtɨŋɨn⁵ "ear"

Arin: utḱenóŋ (Срсл.) "ears" (aures); utq́ȫnoŋ (М., Сл., Кл.) id.; uskuj (Лоск.) id.

Pumpokol: átkin (Сл., Срсл.) "ear"

Comments: ССЕ 198. Werner 2, 31 (doubts the attribution of the Arin and Pumpokol forms, which I think is unquestionable). Historically the PY form is a compound *ʔɔ(N)+gde ( = PA *ħan-ṭiḳa / *ħan-ḳiṭa "ear"). In Kottish the word for "ear" has been replaced by a Turkic loanword kalōx, but we should note the word for earring: āpal / āpul. Here the second part is obviously PY *puʔl 'round', but the first part may reflect the archaic primary root for 'ear'.

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔɔks-aʔd

Meaning: shoulder blade

Ket: ɔ́kśat (pl. ɔ́kśaraŋ, MKet. ɔ́kśedaŋ) 'shoulder blade; shoulder joint' (Werner 2, 34)

Kottish: ačar 'shoulder blade'

Comments: Werner 1, 14, 2, 2, 34 (without comparison and reconstruction). A compound with *ʔaʔd 'bone' in the second part.

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔɔksi (~x-)

Meaning: tree

Ket: ōkś (Imb.)

Yug: oksɨ¹

Kottish: atči, *atče; (Бол.) ači; асс. ači (М., Сл., Срсл.), ač (Кл.)

Arin: ošče (М., Сл., Срсл., Кл.) "wood"; kus-ošče (М., Сл., Срсл., Кл.,) "tree" (lit. "one tree"); otši (Лоск.) "tree, wood", otšil "tree"

Comments: ССЕ 198. The Pump. form oksɨ (Срсл., Кл.) is in reality Yug. The key to the etymology is probably the Kottish paradigm: atči 'tree', plur. ak / ax, āx. The plural form here undoubtedly reflects PY *xaʔq 'tree, wood' (q.v.). One can therefore suppose that PY *xɔksi is a transformation of the original compound *xaʔq-sV or *xaʔq-xusa, lit. "one tree" (a compound analogous to *de-s 'eye' etc.) - cf. a similar later formation in Arin kus-ošče. The transformation of vocalism, however, is still to be explained. Werner 2, 50 <*(x)oksi / *(x)otsi>.

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔɔŋKoj

Meaning: snake

Kottish: oŋxoi, pl.oŋxon,oŋxotn; (Бол.) onxoj

Arin: ankoj (Лоск.)

Comments: ССЕ 199. Probably a compound. The second part may be identical with PY *kVj 'worm'; for the first part Werner (2, 47) suggests PY *ʔāŋ 'string'.

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔɔp-

Meaning: to catch

Ket: t-ɔp-tɛt, t-ɔŋ-tet 'catch'

Yug: t-ɔ́p-fɨt', tɔfɨŋ-tet 'catch'

Kottish: āpēj- 'to hunt'

Comments: Werner 1, 48, 2, 274-275 (not connecting the Ket and Kottish forms and reconstructing <*t^hop^hǝŋ>).

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔuʔj (~x-)

Meaning: cradle

Ket: uʔj, pl. uŋńeŋ⁵

Yug: uʔj, pl. uŋńeŋ⁵

Kottish: ui, pl. ājaŋ

Comments: ССЕ 199. Cf. also Ket. uɣuj⁶, South. ūj, юг. uj "to cradle", Kott. oū-n id. Werner 2, 376, 379 (*uʔj, but <*ugǝj>).

Proto-Yenisseian: *ʔu(ʔ)k- (~x-)

Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
