canis

Etymology 1
From earlier canēs. Ultimately from,   from earlier , whence also 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, though the expected outcome was formally much altered.

The gained a number of ad hoc explanations, such as a shift of  to  in open syllables, or of  to  before vowels. The initial unrounded must have been levelled early into the rest of the inflection from the expected nominative outcome, as  would have regularly delabialised before a rounded vowel.
