This root has so far been identified only in a few languages of the NE Indian Areal Group, though there is a possible Dumi (Himalayish) cognate. Several languages (Kom Rem, Meithei, Moyon) have compounds where this root occurs as second element, after a syllable səŋ‑/sʌŋ‑. This latter element bears a resemblance to #3431 PTB *syaŋ VAGINA / CLITORIS, below.
This root was reconstructed as *kom in TBRS: #64.
