Kuwi (Fitzgerald) :kuteli (pl. kutelka; i.e. kaṭeli, kaṭelka)
Kuwi (Schulze) :kateli
Sunkarametta Kuwi :kaṭeli
Parja Kuwi :gaṭeli
Notes :The correction of Kuwi_F vowel is not mine, but Burrow and Emeneau's; indeed, there are some other examples where -u- is obviously < *-a-. One may notice that this change only happens before dental/retroflex consonants, usually geminated or representing first part of a cluster. As for voiced g- in Kuttia and Kuwi_P, it is secondary; no other language or dialect has g- in this lexeme. We may suggest a regular voicening *k- > g- before -ṭ-; especially if the initial form was *kaṭli. This is suggested by lack of gemination of *-ṭ- in Kuwi dialects, as well as by lack of gemination of -l- in Kuwi_F. If it is so, we may also suggest that the word is indeed nothing else than an old borrowing from Telugu gaṭli.
Kui :kaja (kaji-) "to be congealed, solidified by growing cold"
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) :kajali "to be congealed, become curdled"
Additional forms :Also Kui ganja (ganji-) to solidify, coagulate, become solid; pl. action gaska (gaski-)
Notes :Two obviously different roots - how could they be related on a higher level? In Kuwi one would expect *kajjali, but the form is evidently misspelled.
Kuwi (Fitzgerald) :kaiyali "to become hot (water, etc.)"
Kuwi (Schulze) :kāth'nai "to heat"
Parja Kuwi :kāp- (-it-) "to heat"
Kuwi (Mahanti) :kāndri "anger"
Kuwi (Israel) :kāy- (-it-) "to become hot"
Additional forms :Also Kui kāspa (kāst-) to make hot, heat; n. act of making hot; kāṛa (kāṛi-) to be hot (sun), (spirit) is distressed; Kuwi_F kaiyi hot; kaiyi kīali to heat; Kuwi_S kāka hot; Kuwi_Isr kānd- (-it-) to become hot; kāt- (-h-) to heat
