Proto-North Caucasian: *Hăwaχ_V
Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
Meaning: to swell
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *ʔa=aχʷ-
Proto-Tsezian: *=aʁ:ʷ-
Proto-Lak: =uru=χ:a-
Proto-Dargwa: *=Vbχ:-
Proto-Lezghian: *ʔawχ:Ia
Proto-Khinalug: =opχ-
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. The verb has a very rare root structure (*HVRVCV), clearly seen in the reflexes; the second consonant is in most subgroups a reflex of *-w-, but Lak. has -r- and Andian has changing class infixes (-b-/-r-). Since such a root structure is quite unique for a verb, there are two equally acceptable solutions: to reconstruct *-w- (and consider Lak. -r- and And. -b-/-r- an innovation) or to reconstruct changing class infixes in PEC.
