Altaic etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Altaic: *t`aŋnà
Meaning: shell, pearl
Russian meaning: раковина, жемчужина
Comments: In Jpn. the root has partially contaminated with *t`i̯àma 'round' q. v. (which may explain the accent disagreement with Kor.). In Turkic cf. Dolg. (Stachowski 216) tana 'alter, ausgetrockneter Rentierknochen': semantically most close to the Evk. word (see below), but -n- is strange for a loanword < Evk. taŋa. altet-prnum,altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-mong,altet-tung,altet-kor,altet-jap,altet-reference,
