Proto-Yenisseian: *qɔŋ ( ~ χ-)
Meaning: face, mouth; form, shape
Ket: qɔŋ 'form, shape'
Yug: χɔŋ 'form, shape'
Arin: b́úqon (М., Сл., Кл.) "mouth"; b́uqon (Сл.) "face"; b́ukon (Срсл.) "mouth"; okun (Лоск.) "mouth"
Pumpokol: qan (Сл.) "lip, face", (Сл., Срсл., Кл.) "mouth"
Comments: ССЕ 244. The Arin form is possessive ("my mouth, my face"). Neither Arin, nor Pumpokol have any traces of word-medial *-w- here, so regarding them as plural forms of *χowe 'mouth' (q.v.), as done by Werner 2, 126, seems hardly possible. The Ket-Yug forms are listed in Werner 2, 108 without a comparison with Ar. and Pump. and without reconstruction .
