Avar, Dargwa, Lak and Lezgian are separate attested word sets without a claimed common deep ancestor. Circassian is shown as a local comparison without an invented proto-form. Luri and Bakhtiari membership in the Iranian snow set does not resolve direct inheritance versus Persian contact.

Scholarly Latin letters and diacritics (for example ə, ɛ, ḥ and ž) are retained where used by the checked source. Arabic th and Hebrew sh are reader-friendly equivalents of scholarly ṯ and š.
