\data\alt\altet
Proto-Altaic: *suku ( ~ z-, -o-)
Nostratic: Nostratic
Meaning: a k. of fish
Russian meaning: вид рыбы
Mongolian: *sogoču
Tungus-Manchu: *sugǯansa
Japanese: *sukai
Comments: The comparison with Jpn. sakana 'fish' in JOAL 98 should certainly be rejected (the only meaning of sakana attested in OJ is "food (vegetables) eaten with sake", thus the modern meaning 'fish' is obviously secondary). Cf. *sàk`ò.
