#:Khz. ''ašakh'' ‘stone’,  ''ašamô'' ‘gravel’; Tjer. ru’ut ‘jewel’.
#:The root for stone, tentatively isolated as *ot’o-, formally matches Proto-Tenarian *oʔto (Cf. OVa. ''ooton'' ‘aquamarine’, West Lilli ''vodoig'' ‘jewelry box’ ( < Late PT. *oʔte-ns {accusative form} ). The lack of class suffixes in the Tenarian family hints to the origins of this root being placed in Proto-Tenarian.

#:Proto-Tenarian *təlaqa ‘chisel’, composed of *təla- ‘hard’ and -qa ‘tool-suffix’, offers an interesting opportunity for resolving this item. It is not inconceivable that an early variant of Proto-Tenarian which had already dropped the weak schwa would result in *tlaqa. If this is the variant that was loaned, the forbidden onset cluster *tl would have been resolved by simple deletion of the first element as seen in the oldest strata of Proto-Indo-European loanwords (cf. PTK {{rec|lat’o-k’}} < PIE. [[wiktionary:Appendix:Proto-Indo-European/telh%E2%82%82-|*tḷh₂tós]]).
