\data\cauc\abadet
Proto-West-Caucasian: *t:at:V
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 grandfather (addr.) 2 daddy
Abkhaz: dad 1
Abaza: dáda 1
Adyghe: tāt 2
Kabardian: dāda 1
Ubykh: dad 2
Comments: PAT *dadV; PAK *t:at:á. A nursery word, but demonstrating regular correspondences. It is usually used in a reduplicated form; but cf. also Abkh. di, dia ( *dVjV ~ *t:VjV) 'mummy'.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *t:-ǝr(ǝ)q:ʷa
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: wound, scar
Adyghe: tǝrq:ʷa
Kabardian: dǝrq:ʷa
Comments: PAK *t:ǝrq:ʷá. PAK *q:ʷ may have several PWC sources (*qʷ, *q:ʷ, *q̇ʷ etc.).
Proto-West-Caucasian: *t:V
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: an interrogative stem
Abkhaz: -da
Abaza: -da
Adyghe: tā-r
Kabardian: da-r
Ubykh: da-, dʁa-
Comments: PAT *-da (an interrogative suffix meaning 'who' in verbal forms); PAK *t:a- - an interrogative stem, used in several pronouns (Ad. ta-da, tǝ-da 'where', tā-r 'which', Kab. da-na 'where', da-pśa 'how much', dar 'which'); Ub. da-, dʁa- - an interrogative prefix ('how', 'in which way').
Proto-West-Caucasian: *t:(ʷ)aq:a ( ~ -q̇-)
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: stump, block
Adyghe: tāq:a
Kabardian: dāq:a
Comments: PAK *t:aq:á.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *t:ʷǝq:A / *q:ʷǝt:a
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 neck 2 back of neck
Abkhaz: á-χʷda 1
Abaza: qʷda 1
Adyghe: pśa-tǝq: 2
Kabardian: pśa-dǝq: 2
Ubykh: tʷǝq 1
Comments: PAT *qʷǝda (cf. also Bz. á-χʷda); PAK *t:ǝ́q:ǝ (in the first part of the compound - PAK *pśa 'neck'). The PAT form is metathesized (cf. the external parallels); otherwise the correspondences are fully regular.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tqI:́ʷA
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: two
Abkhaz: ʕʷ-bá
Abaza: ʕʷ-ba
Adyghe: ṭʷǝ
Kabardian: ṭʷǝ
Ubykh: ṭq̇ʷa
Comments: PAT *ʕʷǝ; PAK *ṭʡʷǝ (for the initial cluster cf. Ad. Khakuch. ṭq̇ʷǝ).
Proto-West-Caucasian: *t-q:amǝ
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 skin, fur 2 fur-coat
Abkhaz: a-χamǝ́ 2
Abaza: qamǝ 2
Ubykh: tχamǝ́ 1
Comments: PAT *qamǝ (cf. also Bzyb. a-χamǝ́). Ub. has tχ- because the cluster tq- ( < *tq:-) is prohibited in Ub.; PWC *q:- is reconstructed on basis of PAT *q- (a weak *q- would give PAT *ħ-).
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tq:ʷa ( ~ r-, l-)
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 ashes 2 grey (hair)
Abkhaz: á-χʷa 1,2
Abaza: qʷa 1
Adyghe: tχʷa 2
Kabardian: tχʷa 2
Ubykh: tχʷa 1
Comments: Cf. also Bzyb. á-χʷa; Ad., Kab. tχʷǝ-n (with Ablaut) "become grey (of hair). PAT *qʷa, PAK *tχʷa/*tχʷǝ. The cluster *tq:ʷ- may in fact have been *rq:ʷ- or *lq:ʷ- (since the number of clusters in PWC is restricted), which would be a better match for the EC forms.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *Tq̇ʷa
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: heavy
Ubykh: ǵǝ́-(n)-ṭq̇ʷa
Comments: The first part of the Ub. compound is ǵǝ- 'heart, middle'. The second part has no parallels in WC (which is why the reconstruction is rather tentative), but has rather reliable EC parallels. The initial T- is probably a (class) prefix.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tV
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 to be inside 2 to stand 3 to be
Abkhaz: -ta-/-t(ǝ)- 1
Abaza: -ta-/-t(ǝ)- 1
Adyghe: wǝ-š́ǝ-tǝ-n 2
Kabardian: śǝ-tǝ-n 2
Ubykh: t(ǝ)- 3
Comments: PAT *tV- 'to be inside' (also used as a preverb), cf. Abkh. a-tá-la-ra 'enter', Abaz. ta-l-ra id., ta-pa-ra 'jump inside' etc. The root is used also as a noun stem in *tV-ra 'place where' (Abkh. a-t-rá, Abaz. ta-ra ).

    PAK *tǝ- (usually with preverbs) 'be, stay, stand'; also used as a preverb "upon the surface of smth.".

    In Ub. the root -t(ǝ)- is used as a variant of tʷǝ- 'to be' in some forms (see Vogt 16, 194); historically these are two quite different roots (see PWC *ṕǝ-).

Proto-West-Caucasian: *-tV-
Meaning: 1 conditional 2 desiderative
Abaza: -z-tǝn 1
Adyghe: -ʁʷa-t 2
Kabardian: -ta-m(a) 1, -ra-t 2
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tV-

Abkhaz: á-š̌ 1
Abaza: šʷ-č̣ʷǝ 2
Adyghe: tfajǝ
Kabardian: txʷej
Comments: PAT *sʷǝ (cf. also Bzyb. á-ś̌); PAK *txʷa-jǝ́ (-jǝ - common suffix in names of trees). See Shagirov 2, 75).

Abkhaz: ajzǝ́-ħʷħʷa-ra 1
Abaza: az-ħʷħʷa-ra 1
Adyghe: tχʷǝ-n 1
Kabardian: tχʷǝ-n 1
Ubykh: tχʷ(ǝ)- 2
Comments: PAT *ħʷa (with emphatic gemination, used only with reciprocal and versional prefixes); PAK *tχʷǝ-. The Ub. stem is used only with preverbs (ja-tχʷ-, ʁa-tχʷ- etc., see Vogt 191), and is somewhat dubious semantically. See Abdokov 1973, 68; Shagirov 2, 78.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tʷa
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: pus
Abkhaz: a-tʷá
Abaza: čʷa-bʕa
Kabardian: wa-ta-ps
Comments: PAT *tʷa; the Kab. word is a compound with -ps(ǝ) 'water, liquid'.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tʷa
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 to pour 2 to melt 3 liquid
Abkhaz: a-tʷa-rá 2, a-ta-tʷa-rá 1
Abaza: čʷa-ra 2, a-ta-čʷa-ra 1
Ubykh: tʷa- 3
Comments: PAT *tʷa-; the Ub. root is seen in compounds tʷa-χʷá 'river', perhaps also tʷá-š́x 'hail'.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tʷanǝ
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: any musical instrument
Ubykh: tʷanǝ́
Comments: Ub. tʷ- may go back to *t:ʷ- or *tʷ-.

Ubykh: tʷatʷa
Proto-West-Caucasian: *tʷǝχʷV ( ~ -χ́ʷ-)

Meaning: 1 hoar-frost 2 snowstorm, blizzard
Abkhaz: a-sǝ́-tʷħʷa 2
Abaza: srǝ-čʷħʷa 2
Kabardian: sǝ-tχʷ 1
Comments: PAT *śǝ-(rǝ-)-tʷǝħʷa (cf. also Bzyb. a-śǝ́-tʷħʷa). All three languages reflect a compound with *śǝ- 'snow'.
Proto-West-Caucasian: *ṭa
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: 1 louse 2 nit
Ubykh: ṭaḳ́ 1, ṭać̣ 2
Comments: The Ub. root ṭa- is isolated (ṭa-ḳ́ may be an old singulative form; about -ć̣ see *ć̣A - Ub. ṭa-, inspite Shagirov 2, 125, can have nothing to do with this root), but has rather probable EC parallels.
