Proto-North Caucasian: *GwēṭV (~ *GēṭwV)
Meaning: crop, craw; beak, Adam's apple
Notes: An expressive root (which is sometimes hard to distinguish from a similar *qwɨ̄ṭi q.v.; partial contamination has occurred). Pharyngealization in PL is clearly secondary (expressive) - otherwise PL *qIʷ (not *q:Iʷ) would be expected.
