kuap
Indonesian[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Malay kuap, from Proto-Malayic *uap, from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *(ma-)huab, from Proto-Austronesian *(ma-)Suab, *(ma-)Suaw. Doublet of uap. The initial k- is hard to explain, though according to Adelaar (1992) it must have arisen through these stages: *ma-uap > *maŋ-uap from which colloquial nguap can be found. Prentice alternatively suggests a derivation from *kA-uap with loss of the first vowel.
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
kuap (first-person possessive kuapku, second-person possessive kuapmu, third-person possessive kuapnya)
