Distribution: Preserved in all daughter languages. Reconstruction shape: The Arikapú form presents an additional syllable in the middle of the root. Other such cases are known (see mouth, tongue). It is uncertain why Proto-Jabutí ǝ was retained after a coronal in Djeoromitxí. Semantics and structure: Polysemy: 'short (of length) / short (of height)' is reconstructible.
