Notes : Somewhat irregular forms: ||Ng ǂʔē and ||Ku||e -||e ; in both languages only *!- would be expected. ||Ng ǂʔē is probably a rare dialectal form; in ||Ku||e we might suggest a later assimilation (*||ũ-ǂʔe > ||ũ-||ʔe ). |Auni ǂʔe and ǂi are probably variants. For the n||n- and ||kũ- components in N|huki and ||Ku||e, see *||na- "house".
