Lak root: ha=a-
Meaning: to grind
Lak form: ha=a-n
Comments: G. pr. ha=(u)nu. Cf. Khosr. ha-ja- (aor. ha-jun-di) id. The root is also preserved without vowel reduction in Anlaut: uI-χ:a- 'to eat with appetite' (*'to grind). These two verbal stems reflect the usual Lak. variation χ: / h (having probably a dialectal origin) and the old verbal Ablaut (in this case *Hĕmχ_wV- > uIχ:a-, *Hĭmχ_wV- > *χ_ʷV- > ha-).
Lak. also reflects old nominal derivates: hara-qalu (Khosr. haraqalu) 'mill', nih (Khosr. nih) 'mill-stone, wheel'.
