manitaa "example" from mani "show" + taa "thing" from PCA mane and PA taha
upa “to sprout/become erect” from OA pupa
>tu upa “erection”
>>tu upanni “an unerect but large penis/shower” formed by adding a diminuitive
kuwa “challenging” from PA koumpa
tu kuwa “challenge literally of challenging” is how you would nominalise it
koku tu ema “dentist” literally “doctor of the mouth” koku comes from OA koko via Catkin and ema comes from PA ema
kari “to forget” from OA kati
tangaka "to forget something" apparently onomatopoeic
apakara "to feel frustrated" kara is an irregular outcome of PA kanta

Next: Fat/Oil
In Amarin Fat would be kupi anama literally “focus butter or butt butter” referring to the fattiest part of a Chienna from OA kupi butter which survives as such due to it being analysed as onomatopoeia and anama from PA anama "focus/brightest star of a constellation" which has since shifted in meaning to refer to male butts. While Oil is rika from OA tika from PA tika which was the word for fat (the OA word for oil sende is a loanwoard from Sun Elven)
