1. cough

• The plural is extremely rare. It could only be used in the sense of “different kinds of cough” and (doubtfully) “different periods of illness involving cough”.
• The diminutive is perhaps originally that of Huster (“an instance of coughing”), but it also substitutes the diminutive of Husten, e.g. in the sense of “a slight affection by cough”.
