Proto-Dargwa: *=iq̇ur-

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: ripe

Akusha: =iq̇ur-il (Kait.)

Comments: Cf. also Tsud. biḳur-se (an MSU recording, probably with a misspelling instead *biq̇ur-se). It is very probable that Ak. b=urq̇a 'old' also belongs here (with Ablaut).

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: to split, break

Akusha: =iq̇ʷ-/=iq̇ʷ- (Ur.)

Proto-Dargwa: *=irx-

North Caucasian etymology: North Caucasian etymology

Meaning: to reap

Akusha: =irš-es

Chiragh: =irx:-

Comments: Cf. also Ur. =irš- id. In PD we must reckon with a contamination of *=ix- 'to reap' (originally without -r- and with a weak -x-) and *mirx: 'sickle' (q.v.). The reflex -š- in Ak. and Ur. clearly points to a weak *-x-, thus the Chirag -x:- is obviously secondary (under influence of mirx: 'sickle'). Cf. also another Chir. derivate: arx:la 'a crooked sickle'.
