\data\cauc\caucet
Proto-North Caucasian: *=eƛu
Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
Meaning: to hear
Proto-Avaro-Andian: *ʔanƛV-
Proto-Lezghian: *ʔeʎɨ- (~-ʎ:-)
Proto-West Caucasian: *ʎʷǝ-
Notes: Correspondences are regular. There may have been a vowel variation (or Ablaut) *-eƛu / *-uƛV - to account for the PA form *ʔan-ƛV- < *han-uƛV- (although actually the -u-vowel is reflected only in Cham., and the forms of other languages may reflect a protoform with other vowels).

    A continuation of the same stem (cf. its PA shape *ʔan-ƛV-), with a further addition of an expressive preverb *č̣-, may be PTsKh *č̣aʎ- (~-L-) > Tsez. č̣aʎ-, Gin. c̣aʎ- 'to hear, understand'.

    See Абдоков 1983, 180.
