Notes: Bartholomae (1904: 905) translates "(Fleisch)speise". However, its attestations in the Nerangistan and the Frahang ī ōīm (F 463) suggest the meaning "meat". The attestation in the Frahang ī ōīm (Klingenschmitt 1968: 76) of *kǝrǝfma- is uncertain.There is also gauu-, cf. Bartholomae (1904: 507) under II.2 „das was das Rind liefert, Fleisch“.
