Proto-North Caucasian: *ʒ́w[ĕ]ɫɨ̄
Meaning: twig, rod; sheaf
Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. The vocalism is not very secure (if the Andian form with -a- - žala - could be regarded as a loanword from some other Andian language, and we could reconstruct *-o- for PA, it would be possible to reconstruct *-ĕ- for PEC).
