Kottish:fi, *phi, pl. figan, figaŋ "Traubenkirsche (Prunus Padui)"
Arin:ṕa (Лоск.)
Comments:ССЕ 248. Werner 1, 320 *phi. Not quite clear is the relationship of Kott. fagé, phage, g. fagei//fagā, pl. fakŋ "Traubenkirsche", (Бол.) pak-šulpi "birdcherry", Ass. pak-šúlbi "strawberry" (Werner 1, 275 *phagǝ) - is it a separate root or a compound *pi + *xaʔq 'tree'?
Comments:ССЕ 248. Werner 1, 320 <*pheʔn / *phiʔn>. The same root may be observed in the compound *ʔeχV-piʔn > Ket ēɣiń́1 / eɣiń6 / ɛɣǝn5, Yug ejfɨn1 "ladle, bailer", lit. "iron scoop".
Comments:ССЕ 249. Let us note a rare and probably archaic alternation of vowels in this nominal root (Yug fiʔr : fɔraŋ = Kott. fil : falaŋ < PY *pi(ʔ)r1 : *pɔ(ʔ)raŋ). Werner 1, 312, 320 <*phǝʎaŋ, *phiʎ>.
Comments:ССЕ 249-250. The stem contains a usual body part suffix -aʒ; the Yug form figači, as proposed by Werner, reflects a different compound, with Yug čɨʔ 'head'. Werner unites all the forms presented under *binč- and *pi(ŋ)ka-ʒ under a reconstruction *phigǝ / *phin, saying (literally): "in *phin läßt sich eine alte Pluralform von *phig vermuten; kot., ass. pun- läßt auch PJ *phɨn- vermuten; ar-. -džal, kot., ass. -džol, -čol läßt sich mit kot. šal 'Schneide' vergleichen". The whole of this explanation appears utterly improbable.
Ket:hīɣ (South.), North. hīɣǝ1, pl. hɔʔń2 / hīɣeń1
Yug:fīk, pl. figɨn1
Kottish:fī, g. fīa, pl. fan; Ass. (Бол.) pijal
Arin:pa-nalikip (Лоск.)
Comments:ССЕ 249. Arin has a compound; -kip = -kib in be-kib 'grandfather'; in -nali- -n- is a conjunctive morpheme, and for -ali- cf. -elä in kem-elä 'woman' and -al in Ass. pij-al 'man'. Werner 1, 320 <*phigǝ>.
Proto-Yenisseian:*pɨ-
Meaning:below; from a different side, from the back
Comments:ССЕ 250. For the development *-ʔ(V)ĺ > Ar. -rg- see also PY *bVʔĺ. Hardly justified is Helimski's (КС 248) idea about the Arin form being borrowed from Selk. pɛrqɨ 'belly'. Werner 1, 349 <*phɨgǝl / *phɨlǝ>. Cf. also Ket hʌ́ĺa 'belly, external side of belly' (Werner 1, 334); Kott. pogal- in pogal-thīn 'navel' (see *tɨr).
Comments:ССЕ 250. Крейнович 1968 (p. 45) relates here also Ket. hɨ̄ń 'wart'; however, according to Helimski (КС 246), the latter is borrowed from Selk. pǝn / pɨ̄nɨ- 'wart'. Werner, 1, 348, 349 (without reconstructions).
Proto-Yenisseian:*pɨĺ-
Meaning:to chew, bite
Ket:hɨĺdaŋ5
Yug:fɨĺd́aŋ5 (cf. also fɨlɨŋ-bet́5 "to crumb, mince")
Comments:ССЕ 250. The comparison is possible if Ket -ś(i) is an original attributive suffix. The element -fui in Kottish is perhaps identifiable with the root of the verb fui 'to wind' (see *pVʔV). Werner 1, 345 <*phɨʔǝsǝ / *phɨʔ->.
