Gondwan etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Gondi-Kui : *saṛa- (?)
Meaning : udder; breast
Notes : The root is highly uncertain. It is supposedly bisyllabic; this is shown by initial *cṛ- in PK and Gondi_L rawa < *srawa. However, both the initial and anlaut consonants are unclear. Gondi and Kuwi speak in favor of *s-, while Kui supposes *c-; the same goes for inlaut -r- (in Gondi and Kuwi) and -ṛ- (in Kui). Maybe the Kui form is dialectal or contaminated, although it is unclear what with.

Kui-Kuwi etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Kui-Kuwi : *cṛā-ŋu (*s-)
Meaning : breast
Kui : sṛāngu (pl. sṛāka, sṛākaka)
Khuttia Kui : srāŋgu (pl. srākaka)
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) : rāngū
Kuwi (Schulze) : rāngu
Sunkarametta Kuwi : rāŋgu
Additional forms : Also Kui jrāmbu (pl. jrāpka) udder
Notes : If sṛāngu and jrāmbu are indeed related (which is extremely probable, since both -ng- and -mb- are historical suffixes), the reconstruction *cṛ- would be most likely. We know, however, that PK *cr- > Kuwi *s-, and if we are to support the idea of an affricate here, we should suggest a different development in case of PK *cṛ- > Kuwi *sr- > *r-.
