Proto-Bushman : *ɡǀʔɛ
Meaning : woman
Khoisan etymology : Khoisan etymology
Proto-Ju : *ʒhau
Bushman > Ju : Bushman > Ju
Proto-!Wi : *ɡǀʔɛ
Bushman > !Wi : Bushman > !Wi
ǂHoan : *žiu
Bushman > ǂHoan : Bushman > ǂHoan
Notes : Unfortunately, the word is not present in Taa (where it has been substituted by the compound form *la-qae, lit. 'person-mother'), so that the nature of the efflux in !Wi is hard to establish, and the link between !Wi and PNK-ǂHoan is therefore tentative. Concerning the suffix in PNK-ǂHoan cf. perhaps also the ǀǀKxau form ǀka-u?
