Etymology

Compared to Proto-Athabaskan *džəx̣ (ear),[2] Eyak ǰǝhχ, ǰǝχ (ear) and Tlingit gúk (ear).

Arin utkuj (ear) and itkomenša (deaf) (H.) reflect a fossilized compound, *oɢd-gakʷ (literally ear-opening),[3] and this compounding might have triggered the metathesis seen in Arin and Pumpokol forms.

Kottic words for 'ear', Kott kalôx, kalôq, kalog, kalógan and Assan klokan, kológan (pair of ears), are borrowed from Proto-Turkic *kulkak (ear).[4][5]

Noun

*oɢd ~ *odɢ (plural *oɢd-Vŋ or *oɢd-ja-n)

  1. (anatomy) ear
