Notes :In DED this item is erroneously attributed to Kuwi (probably just a misprint), although both the form kōḍi, the initial cluster sṛ-, the -h- standing for vowel length (this is confirmed by external data), finally, the lack of dialect specification, clearly indicate the language.
Kui :sringa (sringi-) "to be loosed, untied, freed, released"
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) :ringali "to be uncoiled, dishevelled"
Kuwi (Schulze) :rikh'nai "to loose, rip"
Additional forms :Also Kui sripka (< srik-p-; srikt-) to loosen, untie, unbind, free, release; Kuwi_F rikhali to unroll, dishevel; Kuwi_S rikknai to unfold, undo
Kui :sṛohpa (sṛoht-) "to emerge, come to light; n. emergence, issuing from"
Khuttia Kui :ho- "to come out"
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) :hōcali (hōt-) "to rise as sun or moon, go out"
Kuwi (Schulze) :hōnai "to start"
Sunkarametta Kuwi :ho'- (hott-) "to come out"
Additional forms :Also Kui sṛōppa (sṛōpt-) to cause to emerge, bring forth, cast out
Notes :NB: In Kui s̄ometimes -V̄- > -V̆-h-. The exact reasons are unknown, but the fact is that this happens mostly after inlaut -r- and retroflex consonants. Maybe the aspiration was facultative with long vowels, heard best of all after retroflexes. The initial cluster is one of the two cases of PK *sṛ-.
Sunkarametta Kuwi :huc- (-it-) "(woman) to put on, wear (cloth); to weave, plait (mat)"
Kuwi (Mahanti) :hoc- "to put on, wear (loincloth)"
Additional forms :Also Kui_W tusa (tusi-) to gird; Kuwi_F sūtū around; sūtali to roll up cloth; tōkriŋa hūc- to make baskets; Kuwi_S huccinai to weave
Notes :Kuwi_F forms with initial s- borrowed from Telugu; same probably in Kui_W, with a metathese. The root has been contaminated with *oc- 'to weave' and further mixed up by B&E (see *oc- for details).
Number in DED :2715
Proto-Kui-Kuwi :*suḍa (*c-)
Meaning :mouth
Kui :suḍa "mouth, beak, brim"
Dongriya Kuwi :honḍi
Notes :Since the forms in Kui and Kuwi_D cannot be traced back to a single protostem, one of these forms should be considered as borrowed. Borrowed is probably the form in Kuwi (from SDR or any other source), since Kui -ḍ-, and not -nḍ-, is unique among all the forms in all Dravidian languages.
Kui :subga (< sug-b-; sugd-) "to roast; n. roasting"
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) :hūdali "to burn"
Kuwi (Schulze) :hūtinai "to burn, kindle"
Sunkarametta Kuwi :hūḍ- (-it-) "to burn, shoot with gun"
Notes :Although Kui and Kuwi forms evidently contain different consonants, there is still some reason to trace them back to a single gradation *-R-/*-ḍ-, since such a gradation is common for this root in many other Dravidian languages (cf., for instance, in Kurukh: kuṛ-nā - kuṭṭ-as).
