Notes : A very difficult case, as the inlaut resonant is impossible to determine. Tamil and Mal. point to a dental *-r-; Kannada points to an alveolar *-r_-; and the Nilgiri languages have forms that go back to *-r_- (Toda per_f-) and to *-ṛ- (sic; Kota pev-, Toda pešf- can only go back to *peṛ-i-; cf. Kota kiv-, Toda kɨšf- 'to tear' = Tamil kiṛi). Cluster? Several different roots?
