Proto-Altaic: *ŋi̯ṑk`è ( ~ -k-)
Meaning: to rise, elevation
Russian meaning: подниматься, возвышение
Comments: The reconstruction of the diphthong in this root is based on PT *j-: one should suppose an early development *ŋi̯ō- > *jo- in Turkic (which explains the vocalic reflex). Cf. *i̯úgu 'up, above' (which could also influence the Turkic form due to mutual influence of synonymous *jüg- and *jok-).
