Number : 21
Proto-Bushman : *chʔa̰ma
Meaning : bird
Proto-Ju : *cʼa-ma
Proto-Taa : *ǀqà̰h ʔm
ǂHoan : *cha̰ma
Number : 22
Proto-Bushman : *ɡǀǀVri (?)
Meaning : feather
Proto-!Wi : *ɡǀǀVri
Notes : Isolated ǀXam form - extremely dubious.
Number : 23
Proto-Bushman : *ɡǀu-
Meaning : bird; vulture
Proto-Taa : *ɡǀūh
Proto-!Wi : *ǀqhu
ǂHoan : *ɡǀui
Notes : In NK the word could have merged with *ɡǀúí 'finch, weaver' q.v.
Number : 24
Proto-Bushman : *ɡ!ʷkxai (?)
Meaning : to chew, bite
Proto-Ju : *ɳ!e (ʼɳ!-)
Proto-Taa : *ɡʘkxâi
Proto-!Wi : *ǀǀwai
ǂHoan : *ɡ!ai
Notes : Very dubious etymology (the ǂHoan and NK forms are very close, but the discrepancy in the efflux still has to be explained).
Number : 25
Proto-Bushman : *ciʔi
Meaning : to bite; mouth
Proto-Ju : *cʼi
Proto-Taa : *síʔi
Proto-!Wi : *cʔi
ǂHoan : *šĩ
Notes : The bisyllabic structure explains the lack of the expected *cʔ > *ǀq development in South Khoisan as well as (possibly) the irregular correspondence between NK and ǂHoan. In NK, the glottal stop was metathesized (as it often happens in click structures of the *ǂVʔV > *ǂʔV type). The development *ci- > ši- in ǂHoan is strange, but there are no counterexamples.
Number : 26
Proto-Bushman : *žoh
Meaning : dark, night
Proto-Ju : *žo
Proto-Taa : *tõ̀h
ǂHoan : *č(h)ao (?)
Notes : The ǂHoan form is dubious, but note that it is only attested in the unreliable Traill 1973.
Number : 27
Proto-Bushman : *ɡǀṵ (?)
Meaning : night
Proto-Ju : *ɡǀu (?)
Proto-Taa : *ɳǀṵ́
Proto-!Wi : *ǀho
Notes : Assimilation with the plural marker in !Xóõ? Etymology dubious.
Number : 28
Proto-Bushman : *ǂaʔ
Meaning : black
Proto-Taa : *ǂáʔ
ǂHoan : *ǂkxau
Notes : On the correspondence "SK zero efflux - ǂHoan -kx- " see *ǀuʔi 'small' q.v.
Number : 29
Proto-Bushman : *ǀqʔn
Meaning : blood
Proto-Ju : *ǀʼŋ
ǂHoan : *ǀqʔi
Number : 30
Proto-Bushman : *ǀǀxau
Meaning : blood
Proto-Taa : *ǀǀxau
Proto-!Wi : *ǀǀxau
Notes : A SK isogloss (not attested in !Xóõ, but present in other Taa dialects).
Number : 31
Proto-Bushman : *ɳ!̯ɔ̰-
Meaning : blood
Proto-Ju : *ɳǀǀoˤru (*!̯-)
Proto-Taa : *ɳ!a̰
Number : 32
Proto-Bushman : *!ʔu
Meaning : bone; spine
Proto-Ju : *!ʼu
ǂHoan : *!ʔui
Number : 33
Proto-Bushman : *ǂa
Meaning : bone
Proto-Taa : *ǂã̂
Proto-!Wi : *ǂ2 a
Notes : A SK isogloss.
Number : 34
Proto-Bushman : *da̰ ~ *ta̰
Meaning : bone, cartilage
Proto-Taa : *dà̰h rV
ǂHoan : *ća̰a
Notes : Dubious etymology (unclear suffixation in PT).
Number : 35
Proto-Bushman : *ɡ!̯1 u (*!1 -)
Meaning : chest
Proto-Ju : *ɡ!oʔa (*ɡ!̯-)
Proto-Taa : *ɡǀǀú
Notes : The -ʔa element in NK is possibly of suffixal origin.
Number : 36
Proto-Bushman : *So̰h -
Meaning : lungs
Proto-Ju : *šoˤʔo ~ *šõˤʔã
Notes : A good NK root (although the initial sibilant/affricate is hard to establish) with external parallels. Wild thought: cf. *ǀǀ[x]U (?) id. - could the two be related in any way? And if yes, would Sandawe ʎūba id. have anything to do with it?
Number : 37
Proto-Bushman : *ɳǀǀam
Meaning : chest
Proto-Taa : *ɳǀǀam
Proto-!Wi : *ɳǀǀõãi
Notes : A SK isogloss (not attested in !Xóõ).
Number : 38
Proto-Bushman : *!Ga̰h ma
Meaning : sternum, breast
Proto-Taa : *ɡ!qāh ma
ǂHoan : *!Ga̰ma
Number : 39
Proto-Bushman : *kuʔu-
Meaning : to burn; hot
Proto-Ju : *kuʔu
Proto-Taa : *kûbi
Proto-!Wi : *kuru
ǂHoan : *kuru
Notes : Somewhat dubious etymology due to the necessity of postulating various suffixes in subbranches.
Number : 40
Proto-Bushman : *du(ʔ)-
Meaning : to burn
Proto-Ju : √dU[-ri]
Proto-Taa : *dōʔre
