Grammatical comments: n.
Material: Ai. árśas- n. `Hämorrhoiden'; gr. ἕλκος n. `Wunde, bes. eiternde Wunde, Geschwür' (Spir. asper nach ἕλκω), ἕλκανα τραύματα Hes., ἑλκαίνω `bin verwundet';

Letzteres wird dagegen von Pedersen KG. I 126 unwahrscheinlich zu air. olc, elc `malus' gestellt, s. *elk- `hungrig; schlecht'.

Protoform: *riq̇:ʷV
Meaning: urinary bladder
Akhvakh: eq̇:o
Godoberi: req̇:ʷa
Comments: Cf. also Akhv. Tseg. ʕaq̇:ʷa, Tlan. aq̇:ʷa, Ratl. eq̇:ʷi. Loss of *r- in Akhv. is probably secondary: a result of merging two different Av.-And. roots (*hinḳ:u(r) 'urine' and *riq̇:ʷV 'urinary bladder') - well opposed in God.
