Intermediate reconstructions
Notes
VanBik (2009) reconstructs two separate roots for Chin: *ɗoŋ-I, ɗon-II for PKC (VanBik:96) and *toŋ-I, ton-II for PCC (VanBik:207), but entertains the possibility that they are co-allofams. The nasal prefix in Lotha Naga has not been found elsewhere.
The allofam with *-u- vocalism is meant to accommodate the WT form inter alia.
