Proto-North Caucasian: *=VtV̆
Meaning: to give
Proto-West Caucasian: *tA- Notes: The root is well preserved in WC languages; however, the only close EC parallel is the isolated Udi form (ta-desun), and the NC antiquity of the root (as well as its precise PNC phonetic shape) is uncertain. See Trubetzkoy 1930, 279; Абдоков 1983, 182.
