Proto-Yenisseian: *qoʔp (~χ-,-ɔ-)
Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
Meaning: part of leg
Ket: qɔpku6, pl. -n5 'calves of legs'; Werner 2, 110: qɔ́pqu
Yug: χɔʔp, pl. χɔfɨn 'sole'
Pumpokol: hep ( = χep) 'trousers' (Сл)
Comments: ССЕ 261. In HGC 24 the Ket and Yug forms are separated; but phonetically they are quite identical (the component -ku or -qu in Ket is unclear, though). The relationship to *qobǯV 'palm of hand' is not quite clear, although the latter may have influenced the meaning in Yug.
