Proto-North Caucasian: *Hč̣wǟrV̄
Meaning: grey, yellow
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. In PTs we would rather expect *č̣V(r)-, but rules of root structure development are often violated in adjectives (because of active class prefixation / suffixation); otherwise all correspondences are regular. The root must have denoted some light colour (yellowish, greyish).
