PROTO: *ħarχi ( ~ -ē)
MEANING: trip, march
COMMENT: Reconstructed for the PEC level. Cf. also Hurr., Urart. χārǝ 'road, march; way' (probably dissimilated < *χarχi). In [Diakonoff-Starostin 1986, 62] the HU root is compared with Tsakh. wuhur 'street', but since the Tsakhur word is absolutely isolated (the comparison - ibid. - with Chech. ūram 'street' should be certainly abandoned, because Chech. ūram is a recent borrowing from Turkic), we now prefer the comparison of HU *χāri with EC *ħarχi.
