Proto-Bushman : *ɳǀV-
Meaning : to give
Proto-Ju : *ǀʼa ~ *ǀʼã
Proto-Taa : *ɳǀV̀
Proto-!Wi : *ɳǀV
Notes : This morpheme is most frequently used in an auxiliary meaning, denoting imperatives or even tense and aspect status. Cf., however, also PNK *ǀʔa(ŋ) "to give", which may be related to all these forms if *ɳǀV- represents an early variant of the former with the nasality transferred from vowel onto click efflux.
