\data\bush\khoiet
Proto-Khoisan : *||(ʔ)ã
Meaning : to vomit
Sandawe : *wã||ʔã
Hadza : *khʷa||a
Notes : Expressive. Cf. also PNK *ɳ||̰hã id.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔã
Meaning : to fight
Proto-Bushman : *||ʔa[ŋ]
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔã̂
Sandawe : *||ʔã
Notes : One of the most interesting Sandawe-Khoe isoglosses with a "primal click". The word is also quite widespread in Peripheral Khoisan, quite likely to be inherited rather than borrowed.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔa
Meaning : silver jackal, bat-eared fox
Proto-Bushman : *||ʔa
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔá
Hadza : *kʷeƛ̣e (?)
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔa-
Meaning : to shine; sun
Proto-Bushman : *||ʔVn
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔa
Sandawe : *||ʔaka
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔam
Meaning : to clap hands
Proto-Bushman : *||ʔam
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔáḿ
Notes : Theoretically, the North Khoisan forms can all be borrowings from Khoe, but genetic relation is not excluded either.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔau
Meaning : fish
Proto-Bushman : *||ʔau
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔáù
Notes : This is most probably a Khoe borrowing in Northern Khoisan (most Peripheral Khoisan languages do not even have the word for "fish" at all).
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔi [~]
Meaning : to die
Hadza : *ta-||ʔi-
Notes : Found only in Hadza.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔi [~]
Meaning : fire
Sandawe : *||ʔi
Notes : Attested only in Sandawe.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔin[V]
Meaning : to ripen, ferment
Proto-Bushman : *||qʔan-
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔàń
Sandawe : *||ʔine
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔo
Meaning : to sleep
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔóm̀
Sandawe : *||ʔo
Hadza : *||u-pi (?)
Proto-Khoisan : *||[ʔ]õã (?)
Meaning : to go down
Proto-Khoe : *||ṍã́
Sandawe : *||ʔã
Notes : Click efflux correspondences are unclear, but otherwise the forms match very well across Sandawe and Khoe.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔU-
Meaning : to kiss
Proto-Bushman : *||ʔube
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔó[-a/-bè]
Notes : The connection is dubious (the word is always attested with -be in Peripheral Khoisan, suggesting a borrowing from a Khoe source).
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔu-
Meaning : to cough
Proto-Khoe : *||ʔúì
Sandawe : *u||ʔu
Notes : The root belongs to the expressive lexicon; nevertheless, the similarity between Khoe and Sandawe can be anything but coincidental.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔuƛ̣e [~]
Meaning : hill
Hadza : *||ʔuƛ̣e
Notes : Found only in Hadza.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ʔVKV
Meaning : blood
Proto-Bushman : *||xau
Sandawe : *||ʔeḳa
Notes : Dubious because of the lack of Khoe counterparts, but the forms are not incompatible.
Proto-Khoisan : *||aʔano [~]
Meaning : dog
Hadza : *||aʔano
Notes : Encountered only in Hadza. If the lateral click is disregarded, then the root *kan- 'dog' is quite widely spread in that part of Africa (and outside Africa, as well): similar forms are found in Omotic, Shabo, Koman, etc.
Proto-Khoisan : *||ae [~]
Meaning : new
Sandawe : *||ae
Notes : Not found outside Sandawe.
Proto-Khoisan : *||aƛ̣a (?)
Meaning : cold
Proto-Bushman : *||1aʔu
Hadza : *ɳ||aƛ̣a (?)
Proto-Khoisan : *||am
Meaning : to push, to bear child
Proto-Bushman : *||ahm_
Proto-Khoe : *||àm̀
Notes : Honken 1998: 172.
Proto-Khoisan : *||au
Meaning : to whistle
Proto-Bushman : *||ãʔũh
Sandawe : *||wẽ
Notes : Cf. also Nharo ||ãõ id., although the form may be a borrowing from North Khoisan.
