Comments: The PTs paradigm must be reconstructed as *ħɔ̃j,*ħẽjɔ-. This is reflected directly in Gunz. hãj (Nakh. hɔ̃j), hĩja- (PGB *hɔ̃j,*hẽjV-), while already in Bezht. the vowel grade of the oblique base has penetrated into the direct one: hẽ,hẽja-. The same process had taken place in PTsKh where we have to reconstruct *ʔẽj (cf.Tsez. ʔe,ʔeje-). The Khvarsh. and Inkh. forms contain a strange suffixed -q̇ʷa (-q̇o), but must be obviously related to the same root.
Comments: Two oblique bases are reconstructable for PTs: *ħɔ- (cf. PGB *ha-, Bezht. hä-, Gunz. ha-) and *ħɔZʷe- (cf. PTsKh *ʔözʷe-, Gin. pl. üže-be, Inkh. eza-). The direct base PTsKh *ʔözʷǝR is obviously a contamination of a former direct base *ʔöR (= PGB *hare) and oblique *ʔözʷe-.
Comments: PTsKh *ʔözʷ; PGB *haz (*-a- is not quite regular here: one would expect PGB *hɔz and Gunz. hɔz). The PTs form is originally an oblique base *ħɔ(r)-z:ʷV-, early reinterpreted as the direct one (cf. analogous cases in words for 'eye' and 'bone' - all of the direct bases ending in PTs *-r).
Comments: PTsKh *ʔilǝ, PGB *ʔile. There had certainly existed an obl. base *ʔilu- (cf. Gunz. ilu-, Bezht. ilo-, Tsez. elu-, Gin. elu-, Inkh. ilo-); probably secondary is the distinction between nom. and erg. in Inkh. (ilo - ile) and Tsez. (eli - ela), although the details are yet to be found out.
Comments: PTsKh *z-iq̇ʷ- (~-ɨ-)(all forms quoted from Балкаров 1964,101); PGB *z-uq̇-. Used with the PTs preverb *z:-. Cf. also Gunz. ƛ̣o-q̇-, Bezht. (Tlad., Khosh.) ƛ̣är-q̇- 'to mount (an animal)' (*ƛ̣V- 'up, above').
Comments: PTsKh *-ɨƛ- (with preverbs: *n-,*t-,*c-, but also without them in the Ablaut form *ʔiƛ-; forms with *n- mean 'to give (to the 1st p.)', forms with *t- - 'to give (to the 3d p.)'); PGB *n-ɨƛ-.
Comments: PTsKh *mɨq̇a-; PGB *-ɨ̃q̇a-ru (with vowel assimilation in Gunz.). The initial nasal in PTsKh and Gunz. is a reflex of original class markers nasalised under the influence of the nasalised vowel (the changing nasalised class prefixes are still preserved in Bezht.).
Comments: PTsKh *jõcu; PGB *jɔ̃cu (cf. also Bezht. Tl. näčö, Gunz. Nakh. jɔcu). In Tsez. and Bezht. (Tlad.) there occurred a metathesis of nasalisation to the initial resonant.
