аӄ

See also: Appendix:Variations of "aq"

Ket

Etymology 1

Inherited from Proto-Ketic *aqʌ (rot, go sour, verb base),[1][2] with parallels seen in distantly related Kott and Arin (Kott bâgejaŋ (rotting, the act of rotting),[3][4] Arin baroe (It rotted.)).[5]

(Editor's note: Kott and Arin cognates are verbal phrases with Proto-Yeniseian *-b- (verb-internal agreement marker) appended, and justify the antiquity of this root in Ket. Their bare forms, in line with the Ket verb base, would be *-âge and *-oje.

The featuring of prefix can also be seen in Ket, as Биляӄ. (Bílaq. «b³-l²-aq⁰», “It went sour, It rotted.”), for comparison. This exact same conjugation has a direct equivalence in the faux-attested Arin form, Arin baroe (It rotted.), which if separated into its morphemes, yields *b³-r²-oe⁰.)
