Proto-Eskimo: *caju-ɣ-, -ʁ-
Meaning: to tug, to tremble, to dance
Russian meaning: тянуть, дергать, дрожать, танцевать
Proto-Yupik: *caju-ɣ-, -ʁ-
Proto-Inupik: *caju-ɣ-, -ʁ-
Comments: It is possible to separate these forms in two roots here: 'dance' and 'to pull, to tug, to tremble'. However, both phonetically and semantically semantically (cf. Eng. 'shake (n.)' = 'name of a dance') these roots seem to be connected to each other and can be traced to a single proto-meaning 'to shake, to tug'.
