\data\alt\altet
Proto-Altaic: *t`égè ( ~ -o)
Nostratic: Nostratic
Meaning: to sit; bed
Russian meaning: сидеть; постель
Tungus-Manchu: *tege-
Korean: *thắ-
Japanese: *tǝ́kǝ́
Comments: Lee 1958, 118, АПиПЯЯ 292. As a noun the PTM root has the meaning "seat, bench", which makes the comparison with Japanese quite plausible. An Eastern isogloss - but cf. notes to *t`égè(-rV) 'edge, border'.
