Proto-Altaic: *egmV
Meaning: shoulder, collarbone
Russian meaning: плечо, ключица
Comments: KW 130, Владимирцов 321, Poppe 60, Колесникова 1972а, 92-93, Дыбо 307, Лексика 240. A Western isogloss. Despite Щербак 1997, 114, Mong. is not < Turk. May be derived from *ĕgi 'to bend' q. v. Doerfer (TMN 2, 192) protests against the Turk.-Mong. comparison, but restricts himself to "einigen grundsätzlichen Bemerkungen" (a loan theory would have to explain Turk. *-n > Mong. -m). altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-turc,altet-mong,altet-tung,altet-reference,

Mongolian etymology :

Proto-Mongolian: *eɣem
Meaning: shoulder, collarbone
Russian meaning: плечо, ключица
Written Mongolian: egem (L 298) Middle Mongolian: egem, egan (egam) (SH), igem (LH) Khalkha: egem
Buriat: ēm
Kalmuck: ēm
Comments: KW 130. Mong. > Evk. eɣem, see Doerfer MT 125. The word reveals a peculiar variation of -g- and -ɣ-: the Khalkha form egem may be a literary hypercorrection, but the Secret History also has -g-, not -'-, contradicting the reconstruction *eɣem based on Bur. and Kalm. Perhaps one should reconstruct *egm(e) for Proto-Mong., to account for this unusual reflexation. monget-prnum,monget-meaning,monget-rusmean,monget-wmo,monget-mmo,monget-hal,monget-bur,monget-kal,monget-reference,
