Proto-Kui-Kuwi : *kū̆t-a
Meaning : to hiccough
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) : kūta vē'ūri aiyali
Kuwi (Schulze) : kūtha wiuri "hicock (sic)"
Tekriya Kuwi : kuta ve'uri "hiccough"
Notes : The -h- in Kuwi_S is strange; could it reflect an older -p-? Probably not, as the root seems to be nominal in PDR. So it is probably just expressive. Also irregular is vowel shortness in Kuwi_T.
Number in DED : 1718
