Proto-Basque: *koko
Meaning: 1 egg (child's word) 2 food (any kind) (child's word)
Bizkaian: koko 1
Gipuzkoan: koko 1
Low Navarrese: koko 1
Salazarese: koko 2
Roncalese: koko 2
Comments: A child's word, but very similar to Tsakhur q̇uq̇ 'egg'. (Children's words can represent old words that have survived due to their expressive value: cf. Bsq *čiči 'meat'.) This is possibly the ultimate origin of 'coco-(nut)'. (Basque sailors calling the new-world nut 'egg-nut'?)
