Proto-WChadic: *mV(HV)c-
Meaning: 'to move' 1, 'walking' 2
Hausa: mṓc̣à 1
Ankwe=Goemai: mes 2 (?) 'an affected walking', if not the same as mes 'to brag ' [TAS:247]
Tangale: mese 2 [JgT] (vowel assim., also 'journey, travel')
Notes: long vowel in Hausa may result from a contraction: *mVHVc- > mVVc-. The HCC > *CHC-metath. is typical of Chadic. See [SkHs:203].
