- Modern Indic and Nuristani lexemes as though from Sanskrit khúra- without certain etymology, possibly loans from Dravidian (cf. Turner 1962–1966:207 no. 3906; KEWA I:310, EWAia I:454, cf. Burrow 1948:376). Perhaps further connected with lexemes as though from Sanskrit *khuṭṭa- 'peg, post' in cognate set 9629, but these could also be parallel loans.
