Notes :See notes on the Peripheral Khoisan reflexes. It is not excluded that, for instance, Southern Khoisan forms of this root are borrowed from Khoe, whereas North Khoisan ones are original.
Notes :Possible borrowing from !Xóõ into CK (the so called "!Xóõ-|Gwi contact zone"). Cf., however, the interesting Sandawe parallel (which could also suggest a way for secondary labialization of the click in South Khoisan).
Notes :The Sandawe form is included only because it might, in the long run, provide a clue for the labial click in South Khoisan; but at the present time, this is sheer conjecture. The Kxoe and Peripheral Bushman forms are quite likely to go back to the same source, though.
Notes :The Bushman forms are hardly borrowed from Khoe; Nort Khoisan, in particular, has a glottalic / pharyngealized vowel that cannot be explained through this scenario.
Notes :See Honken 1998: 181. A cultural term, easily borrowed, although the internal structure of the word in !Xóõ is too complex to be explained as a recent borrowing. The status of the Sandawe form is unclear - but it is not incompatible with Khoe data.
Notes :Within Peripheral Khoisan, attested only in =Hoan; however, recent borrowing from |Gui at least should be excluded (the word has lost its click there).
