tasɨraɗ num. seven sept (3 groups, 12 languages) A syn: mɨɗɨp.
This root is less well-attested than *mɨɗɨfɨn. It is found on or around the Mandara Mountains. There is a regular change *r→l in the North sub-branch, of which the Mofu group is part, and in Cuvok. The same change took place in the Daba group, but that is not evident in the limited data here. The final *ɗ has been lost in the Mofu group, which is a common sporadic change.
