Proto-North Caucasian: *lāswĔ
Meaning: hair; wool
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *rVsV Notes: Although the root is not widely spread in EC, the correspondences between Av., Tsez. and WC are quite regular, and the PNC reconstruction seems reliable. See Abdokov 1983, 83-84 (with some confusion of several EC roots, but containing the basically correct comparison of Av. ras and WC forms).
