Proto-Kui-Kuwi : *pēr-
Meaning : a large rat
Kui : pēreṛi
Additional forms : Also Kui ? pihereju river, stream; prēnḍa father's elder brother; great-grandfather; pēro father's elder sister-in-law; great-grandmother
Notes : The word pihereju can belong here only if it would be justified to trace it back to *pēr-eju. Although -h- does sometimes stand for vowel length before consonants, this is the only example of it in the intervocalic position, so it would be risky to make any certain conclusions.
