Lezghian etymology :

Proto-Lezghian: *mVq̇(uj)
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 ploughshare 2 knife
Tabasaran: muq̇u 1
Udi: me 2
Comment: The Tab. form contains a *-j-suffix (muq̇u < *mVq̇uj). The vocalism is hard to establish because of assimilation in the first syllable of a disyllabic word in Tab., and because of the general unreliability of the Udi vocalism; the only certain thing is that the root vowel was not *a.
