Reconstruction:Proto-Austroasiatic/Cnɗuːm

Etymology

 * Proto-Austroasiatic: *Cɗuːm (Sidwell, 2024, #AA150)
 * Proto-Mon-Khmer: *ɗum ~ *ɗuum (Shorto, 2006, #1362)

If not just a coincidence, Kiranti has seemingly borrowed this word, cf. *dum ("to ripen") (Jaques, 2017), whence 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 (through affixed forms).

Adjective

 * 1) ripe
 * 2) ripe-colored
