\data\cauc\caucet
Proto-North Caucasian: *ɫăwqV̄ (/*-ăwqV̄ɫ)
Sino-Caucasian etymology: Sino-Caucasian etymology
Meaning: many, enough
Proto-Nakh: *duqa
Proto-Tsezian: *laχ:i ( ~ -ʁ-)
Proto-Dargwa: *-aqal
Proto-Lezghian: *l[a]wχ-
Proto-West Caucasian: *q:V
Notes: Initial *ɫ- is proved by the PL and Gunz. forms. In PN and PD class prefixes were added which led to the shift of *ɫ- to the stem's end; the inanimate class prefix *r- > *d- was later petrified in PN. Processes like this are quite usual for adjectival and verbal roots. In general the etymology seems quite plausible.
