Proto-North Caucasian: *HV̆c̣_V
Meaning: ring, bracelet
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. The root is attested only in three languages (therefore the phonetic side of reconstruction is not very certain); the correspondences are, however, regular and the comparison seems quite reliable.

Zuberoan: üztün 1, 3, 5, erh-áztün 2, 5
Roncalese: er-eztun 2, 5
Comments: Most of the words are compounds with Bsq *elhi 'finger' (q.v.). The change to trilled /r̄/ (err-) is unusual and secondary. One of the words in which Bsq *-st- corresponds to a tense NC sibilant/affricate (here *-c̣_-).
