Proto-Gondi-Kui : *ec-

Kui-Kuwi etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Kui-Kuwi : *ec-
Meaning : how many
Kui : esoni, esoṛi, esoli
Khuttia Kui : eccur
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) : ecura "how many, how much"
Kuwi (Schulze) : eccōra
Additional forms : Also Kui est- which; estanju, estaru, estari, estai which man, which men, which woman or thing, which women or things; adj. esti; ese how much; eseka when; estava where; Kuwi_F eceka how much; ecela when; Kuwi_S ecceka how much.
Notes : This base was used as an interrogative quantitative pronoun in PK, although on the base of it Kui has developed an independent declinable 'which' pronoun. Real PK forms, however, are just *ecora (in Kui this suffix was confounded with the usual *-ṛi/*-ṇi suffix) 'how many' and *eceka 'how much', as well as, possibly, the simple *ece, preserved in Kui.
