Pacoh[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Katuic *ksaj, from Proto-Mon-Khmer. Cognate with Eastern Katu c'xêê, Eastern Bru casâi, Bahnar khei, Khmer ខែ (khae), Mlabri kiʔ.
For some other cases where Pacoh (and Katuic in general) has /s/ while other Austroasiatic languages have /h/, see also xay (“full, sated”), pixay (“otter”). Although Shorto (2006) chiefly reconstructed these cognate sets with *h, Katuic is probably conservative, with other branches underwent debuccalization.
