‘traditional medicine practitioner’
source: verified from Holle list by two or more speakers unless otherwise noted c. 1900 note: this entry from Holle is not in fact a lexical item. It is no doubt a phrasal translation of the elicitor’s description. This phrase simply states ‘person who knows medicine’
