kU 'design'

present: kuvate  [2.] kOti  

verbal: -kUta AV.+  -k/Avam  

derivatives: -kUti V.+  kav/i V.+  k/avIyas SV.  

Used only with A, except in nizk/Avam, the belonging of which is doubtful (as is also that of kav/i). RV. has -kava, kavatn/u, kavAr/i, 'stingy', of questionable relationship. The grammarians set up roots 1ku, 2ku or kU, 'shout', giving them a full set of forms; and Nir. once uses their intens. kokUyate.
