\data\cauc\nakhet
Proto-Nakh: *kōri
North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology
Meaning: hawk
Chechen: kǖra
Ingush: ker
Batsbi: kujr
Comments: Cf. also Bacb. pl. kore-lč, Chech. Cheb. kwōri, Shar. kū(ʔ)ri, Ved. kwīri etc. Since the PN form has very reliable EC parallels, we must assume that Georg. kori 'hawk' is an old Nakh loan (preserving the PN phonetic structure).
