twekhí·reku n.anim.* cockroach
*The ending -u would suggest this noun is animate. I haven’t decided whether insects are actually considered animate in Núta, but if they are not, the word-final -u might simply be a part of the stem.
Thanks to Znex for inspiring the word form, and a little sniff to the cockroach I accidentally killed this morning when I wiped my hands on the dish cloth it was hiding in.

Let's have some fun with this one.
haara intransitive verb "to wage war". This stem triggers back vowel harmony on affixes, and makes a preceding vowel checked.
kạxxaara [kəχːaːɾa] noun of class 4 army
mâhaara noun of class 1 soldier
ṿṿôhaara [vˤːohaːɾa] noun of class 12 battlefield
I forgot to mention that my word for bird was inspired by the Nuta word for it. Thanks Des!

íwı·wėhsa n.inan. wind
Inspired by Gestaltist’s entry above, the stem of this noun contains a reduplication of the Proto-Núta root *miixəs - to blow.
