кентибуль

Ket

Etymology

Inherited from Proto-Ketic *kʰentʌbul (“shoulder blade”), derived from Proto-Yeniseian *kʰen (“shoulder, top of shoulder”) + Proto-Ketic *-d (“her, its”, third person singular feminine- or inanimate-class possessive clitic) + Proto-Yeniseian *bul (“foot”).[1]

First element of the compound did not survive on its own in Ket, found only as a part in terms for body parts (for example Ket баткентъ (bátkentə, “hand, forearm”)), but the second element can be found as Ket буль (būlʲ, “foot”).
