#1813 PTB *mun GIVE BIRTH / CONCEIVE / CREATE

This root is reconstructed for Proto-Kiranti by Michailovsky (1991). The Burmese form definitely appears cognate. It is possible that this etymon should be reconstructed with the PTB rhyme *‑ul, as suggested by apparently parallel examples: #363 PTB *s/r‑mul*s‑mil*s‑myal HAIR / FUR / FEATHER (> WB mwê); #2623 PTB *s‑b/m‑ruːl SNAKE (> WB mrwe).
