 Mighty
Etymology
Etymology of Creation: Trying to bridge the gap between 1) Quecha: chaka : bridge, thigh, leg & 2) Nostratic: *t’u?ÅrV or *zÉgUtV

My best guess was zaʊgʰ for something that might lead to either a CH, J, or ZH sound later on. Especially preceding a low rounded vowel, since I kept making those sounds by accident when I tried it.

To match the second set of sounds I felt a flap and vocalized stop would get both an r and t sound.

Then I just ended on a, and it felt like a good Mighty word to me.

For the genders, I tried to think what one Mighty observing another would apply as their gender's primary limbs / actions.
