"Thunder" information. More stuff.

[Rankin, Robert L.]

Terms in which one or another cognate gets translated ‘thunder’ in the Comparative Siouan Dictionary.  (Although I can’t for the life of me figure out how that applied in the first case (below).  It must have been there somewhere.  Bob)

GLOSS[ thunder †tuha



GRAMCAT[

SEMCAT[



PSI[ *tú•ha



OTHREC[



PCH[ *tú•ha

CR[ súua RG

CR[ suú G+G-56, DEC-7

HI[ tahú ~ táhu ‘thunder’ J



PSE[ *tú•ha ~ *tú•he



BI[ †tuhé “ṭuhé, ṭúhe” ‘thunder’ DS-281b



TU[ †tu•h- “tūi, tūhangrūa” ‘thunder’ H.



COM[ Cf. ‘thunder †krų’, ‘rainbow’. {tahu} shows rightward vowel

exchange. From PSi |t| we would expect CR |š/__u|; however, CR |s| is regular

for pre-CR |t /__a|.  This suggests a series of developments like the

following:  |*tahu > *sahu > *sau > *suu|.  |-uu| is the stem vowel in CR;

|-uua| is the citation form -- with added |-a| (?).  The implications are

that rightward vowel exchange occurred in PCH (not just in HI) and its product

was reduced in CR.  Cf. ‘visible’.
