Proto-Kui-Kuwi : *pṇāʔji
Meaning : old
Kui : pṛāḍi
Khuttia Kui : pṛāk- "(food) to become stale"
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) : prā'i
Kuwi (Mahanti) : pṇā'ī
Kuwi (Israel) : pṇaʔayi
Additional forms : Also Kuwi_F prā'asi an old-timer
Notes : The reconstruction *pṛ-, which probably would agree better with external data, is impossible because of -ṇ- in Kuwi_Isr (cf. examples on PK *gṇ-). The inlaut cluster is reconstructed as *-ʔy-.
