\data\bush\xooet
Proto-Taa : *gú
Stems : *gú-le; *gú-n
Meaning : bark
Bushman etymology : Bushman etymology
!Xoong : gúle 3 e I, pl. gún 2 u I
Masarwa : gule
|Nu//en : !gum
!Xoong derivates : dim. gùlu-bâ/ʘàa, pl. gùlu ʘʔâni
Notes : The |Nu//en form may represent a different root. However, D. Bleek's transcriptions quite frequently insert a "pseudo-click" where it should not have been (cf. the transcription ||gulǝ for the Masarwa form in Bleek 1929), and the auslaut -m may easily represent the plural form (cf. !Xóõ gú-n).
References : Bleek 50, 389; Traill 173.
