Proto-Bushman : *daʔ- (*ʔna-?)
Meaning : fire, to burn
Proto-Ju : *daʔa
Proto-Taa : *nà̰hʔni (?)
Notes : The NK form has good outside parallels; however, comparison with SK *nà̰hʔni, although tempting (cf. *ʔna̰h[-N] 'gums'), is not reliable, particularly due to vocalism problems. Cf., however, Sandawe *naʔ- 'to burn', which may shed extra light on the problem.
