- This term is only found in the Southern Ket varieties (Kellog dialect,) and it is not listed by VWdJS as a Ket word. The neighbouring relatedYug (who traditionally lived south of the Ket speakers) feature this term regularly, which may suggest a linguistic contact or common preservation of the ancestral term.
