цӏокъберг

• цӏокъбӏариг (c̣oq̇bʿarig) (Cheberloy dialect)

A compound of цӏокъ (c̣oq̇, “ounce”) +‎ *берг (*berg). Nikolaev and Starostin connect the latter with the second element in Dargwa дугелибуг (dugelibug, “badger”) and propose a genetic connection with Proto-Northwest Caucasian *bIaga (“jackal; fox”), other proposed connections are with Sumerian 𒊊 (pirig, “lion”), Proto-Indo-Iranian *wy(H)āgʰrás (“tiger”).
