Number : 646
Proto-Bushman : *ɡ!̯ani
Meaning : chin
Proto-Ju : *ɡ!̯aiŋ
Proto-Taa : *ʒàni
ǂHoan : *zana
Notes : The NK root corresponds well to PCK *ɡ!an[i] id., but there are no other convincing examples on the "NK retroflex click - SK/ǂHoan affricate" correspondence. Therefore, this is either a chance resemblance between two different roots or an irregular (dialectal?) development.
