Kui-Kuwi etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Kui-Kuwi : *bakr-
Meaning : to scratch, claw
Kui : verka (verki-) "to scratch a part that irritates or itches; n. scratching"
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) : bakṛali "to claw"
Kuwi (Israel) : bark- (-it-), brak- (-h-) "to claw"
Notes : The cluster in Kuwi_F is original; otherwise there would be no need for metathese. However, the Kui form is doubtful, since both the vocalism and the consonantism are irregular.
