Notes and references
[edit]- ^ Miller, Kirk. 2019. Hadza. Glottopedia.
- ^ cf. ccezze /ⁿǀˀet͜s’e/ 'tick'
- ^ from hazzape /ɦat͜s’ape/ 'leaf'?
- ^ If *-ko-a > /-kʷa/ rather than *-kʷa-ʔV > /-koʔo/.
- ^ Anyawire et al. (2013) only found ntsa. Tucker et al. (1977) report sa 'star', and Woodburn confirms the form he knows does not have a nasal onset. /ƞ/ + /sa/ would generate /ƞt͜sʰa/. Indeed, speakers do not care if the latter is written ntsa or nsa. There are several Cushitic loanwords that have an onset that varies as C ~ NC in Hadza where the source language is only reconstructed with C.
- ^ from za 'come'?
