Proto-North Caucasian: *Hrǝ̄mƛV̄
Meaning: bosom; armful
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *ʔinƛVr
Proto-Tsezian: *ʔãʎV ( ~ -ʎ:-)
Proto-Dargwa: *duk-la
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. In PD we would rather expect a reflex like *duruk-, which was probably contracted after adding a suffix (*durukV-la > *dukV-la).

Avar-Andian etymology :

Search within this database
Protoform: *ʔinƛVr
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: bosom
Andian language: inʎira (Gud.)
Akhvakh: iƛari
Tindi: inʎar
Karata: eʎemi
Botlikh: intar-ʎi
Bagvalal: ehena-ʎ:i
Godoberi: hinʎari
Comments: Cf. also Akhv. Tseg. inʎar, Ratl. inƛal, Kar. L.-Enkh. enʎer. Kar. eʎemi is a plural form < *ʔeʎen-bi < *ʔirƛVn-bi; Botl. intar-ʎi (a locative form) is a dissimilation < *inʎar-ʎi (as suggested by Gudava 1964, 111).

    Av. ʎor 'bosom' belongs rather to PEC *xwōlɦV q.v. (or at least may represent a merger of the two roots).

Dargwa etymology :

Search within this database
Proto-Dargwa: *duk-la
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: bosom, at one's bosom
Akusha: dukla
Comments: Ak. dukla can be formally treated as a locative of dukala 'wing; armful' (PD *dukala). For PD two similar forms meaning 'wing' can be reconstructed: *dukala and *dux:ala (q.v.), reflected in different dialects. In PD there must have existed *x:ala 'wing' and *dukala ( < *dur(u)ka-la) 'bosom', with a subsequent mixture of reflexes. Cf. also perhaps Chir. dukla-š 'vagina (of an animal)'.
