Reconstruction:Proto-Nakh/laatta

Etymology
In the work of Nikolaev & Starostin (1994), the reconstruction of the vowel of the second syllable is unfounded. Schrijver (2021) writes that: “Ingush leatta generalized the form with palatal umlaut, which originated in the oblique stem, in the nominative.” But he does not confirm this assumption in any way. This assumption can be supported by the fact that the word, according to Malsagov (1925), refers to the first hard declension of long case endings, in which there is a change in ablaut. However, this change in ablaut disappeared after generalization, but the declination remained the same.
