Afitti:kárnd̪à2
Stevenson 2000: 105. Allegedly distinct from árǝ̀k 'stomach' [ibid.]. It is, however, precisely that second word that is listed as árik 'abdomen' in [MacDiarmid & MacDiarmid 1931: 159]. Cf., however, kárnd̪à 'belly' vs. buš 'intestines' in [Rilly 2009: 523].

NUMBER:11
WORD:breast
Ama:tulum #1
Only attested in the old source [MacDiarmid & MacDiarmid 1931: 159], so somewhat dubious. The equivalent for 'female breast' is most likely kāšì [Stevenson 2000: 105], quoted as kaši 'breast' in [MacDiarmid & MacDiarmid 1931: 159] and as káší in [Rilly 2009: 510]. The additional form kɔfurka 'breast' in [Stevenson 2000: 105] seems actually to be an Afitti form (see notes on Afitti). (although in [Stevenson 1957: 172], the form kɔfʋrka is actually listed as Afitti).
Afitti:kɔfurka #2
Stevenson 1957: 172 (transcribed as kɔfʋrka). Listed as kɔfurka in [Stevenson 2000: 105] under Nyimang, though the form is actually Afitti. This is further confirmed by its earlier attestation as kofurkáː 'chest' in [MacDiarmid & MacDiarmid 1931: 159]. Distinct from kásɛ̀ 'breast' (most likely, female) in [Stevenson 2000: 105; Rilly 2009: 510], quoted as kasi in [MacDiarmid & MacDiarmid 1931: 159].

NUMBER:15
WORD:cold
Ama:kwɛ̄=šìl ~ kwɔ̄=šìl1
Stevenson 2000: 105. The first syllable seems to be of prefixal origin: cf. the derivation of this word from šil 'fresh' in [Stevenson 1957: 174]. For the Mandal dialect, Rilly quotes the form kāùrìg, most likely borrowed from Hill Nubian [Rilly 2009: 459].
Afitti:kwɔlŋga ~ kwɔlǝŋga2
Stevenson 2000: 105. Also ɔrɛʔ-ɔrɛk id. (semantic difference is unknown). In [Rilly 2009: 459], only this latter equivalent is listed, in the form ɔ̄rɛ̄-ɔ̄rɛ̀-g, and is explained as a borrowing from Hill Nubian (cf. Proto-Hill Nubian *orog 'cold').

Ama:kwɔ̄dù1
Stevenson 2000: 108. Quoted as kwɔ́dū in [Rilly 2009: 476]. It is unclear if the alternate form āɲɔ̄d̪ū, Mandal dialect káɲɔ̄d [ibid.] is related.
Afitti:títìŋ2
Stevenson 2000: 108. Quoted as t̪ít̪t̪íŋ in [Rilly 2009: 476]. Tentatively explained in the latter source as a borrowing from Hill Nubian, but the actual forms are too phonetically distant (Proto-Hill Nubian is *til-) to accept this hypothesis.

Stevenson 2000: 108. Quoted as ɔ́rd̪ǝ̀g ~ ɔ́rt̪ǝ̀g in [Rilly 2009: 510]. The form is most likely borrowed from Hill Nubian (cf. Kadaro ɔruːdu, Dilling ordi, etc.), with an additional collective suffix.
