North Caucasian etymology :

Proto-North Caucasian: *Gēɫu
Meaning: thigh, leg
Notes: Reconstructed for the EC level. All the forms certainly correspond to each other. However, there are two possible reconstructions: a) the one proposed above - in this case we must consider *r- in PA and PTs as a former class prefix (which raises some doubts);
b) we can reconstruct *Gēlu (with *l) and a metathesized variant *lēGV > PA *riʁi-, PC *rɨχi- (with a rather frequent *-lV extension).
At present it is hard to choose one of these solutions only.
