Word
Language: Raetic
Word type: noun

Number: singular

Meaning: unknown

Paradigm: θaukis (singular), θauχ- (2)
Attestation: IT-5 (?:/]θ̣[ ]θ̣?kaịa[ ?/utiku:θaukịṣ/kleimunθeis/avaśuerasi:ihi) (1)

Commentary

Formally, the word can be a genitive II in -s, well attested in Raetic. Its occurring together with a rare ablative (kleimunθeis) makes an interpretation as an ablative in -s equally feasible. In either case, the base is most likely to be an individual name θauki. The connection with the two occurrences of the unclear sequence θauχ- is dubious.
