Notes: This could be a loan from Indic. It is attested by an educated Wakhi speaker from Afghanistan Wakhan (QIla-e Panja village) and by two educated Wakhi speakers from Pakistan, one of whom lives in Afghanistan Wakhan and the other has traveled widely in Afghanistan Wakhan. They all agree that the Wakhi words for "cloud" and for "mist" (ṣ̌ak) are not used for fog.[There is no reason to assume a loan as the phonology is completely regular and the lexeme is robustly attested in Iranian. – RT]
