Proto-Lezghian: *qäqV-
Meaning: yellow
Agul: qIuqIef
Archi: χaχat:ut
Comment: Pharyngealization in Ag. is secondary - in front of an original front vowel, cf. dialectal forms: Bursh. qeqe-r, Burk. qeqe-f. Also regular is the shift *-ä- > -e- > -u- in a preaccented syllable after the uvular consonant.
