North Caucasian etymology :

\data\cauc\caucet
Proto-North Caucasian: *biʒĂ
Meaning: female breast, nipple
Proto-Lezghian: *p:ic:-
Proto-West Caucasian: *bǝʒǝ (~-ǯ-)
Notes: The comparison belongs to Trubetzkoy 1930, 277 (who, however, had mistaken Agul for Andi; there is no such word in Andi). See also Abdokov 1983, 74. The root is clearly expressive, and its presence in only one EC language (other EC forms cited by Abdokov can not belong here) makes the etymology highly unreliable.
