Комментарий: Cf. also Ag. Bursh. ʡaḳ, Fit., Burk. eḳ 'wheat'. The Lezg. form goes back to *hIa(m)ḳVj with a productive *-j-suffix; suffixation in Rut. is less clear. For the semantic development cf. external evidence (variation of meanings between "seed, grain, fruit-stone" and "wheat, wheat grain"). Unfortunately, without the Tab. and Arch. evidence it is hard to prove whether there was or was not a medial nasal resonant (required by external evidence).
