== English == === Noun === koot (India) The costus plant. ==== References ==== Henry Yule; A[rthur] C[oke] Burnell (1903), “koot”, in William Crooke, editor, Hobson-Jobson […] , London: John Murray, […]. == Central Franconian == === Alternative forms === kurt (other dialects of Ripuarian) kurz, korz (Moselle Franconian) === Etymology === From Middle High German kurz, from Old High German kurt, from Proto-West Germanic *kurt, from Latin curtus. The word was borrowed around the time when the High German consonant shift ceased to be active, which explains the Old High German doublets kurt and kurz. The fact that within Central Franconian the t-sound is northern, may imply that it has been reinforced by Low Franconian and Low German influence. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /koːt/ === Adjective === koot (masculine koote, feminine and plural koote or koot, comparative kööter, superlative et köötste) (Kölsch) short, not long == Dutch == === Etymology === From Middle Dutch cote, from Proto-Germanic *kutō-, related to *kautōn- (“knuckle”), of unknown ultimate origin, with no certain cognates outside of Germanic. However, compare kuil (“hole in the ground”) and keutel (“hard animal dropping”), though Kroonen considers comparisons with the latter a stretch. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /koːt/ Hyphenation: koot Rhymes: -oːt === Noun === koot f (plural koten, diminutive kootje n) (chiefly diminutive) phalanx, phalange (dialectal) joint Synonym: gewricht ==== Derived terms ==== overkoot teenkoot vingerkoot ==== Descendants ==== Afrikaans: koot → Papiamentu: koot (dated) → West Frisian: koat === References === === Anagrams === toko == Estonian == === Noun === koot (genitive koodi, partitive kooti) flail == Finnish == === Etymology 1 === ==== Noun ==== koot nominative plural of koko === Etymology 2 === ==== Noun ==== koot nominative plural of koo === Anagrams === koto, toko == Marshallese == === Etymology === Borrowed from English goat. === Pronunciation === (phonetics) IPA(key): [kɔːtˠ], (enunciated) [kɔɔtˠ] (phonemic) IPA(key): /kɛwɛtˠ/ Bender phonemes: {kewet} === Noun === koot a goat === References === Abo, Takaji; Bender Byron W.; Capelle, Alfred; DeBrum, Tony (2009–), “koot”, in Marshallese–English Online Dictionary‎[3] == Semai == === Etymology === From Proto-Aslian *kəmuən (“nephew”), from Proto-Mon-Khmer *kmuən ~ *kmuun ~ *kmun (“sibling's child”). === Noun === koot nephew; niece === References ===
