Proto-Eskimo: *cuŋa-
Meaning: bead
Russian meaning: бусина
Proto-Yupik: *cuŋa-
Proto-Inupik: *cuŋaura-
Comments: This cannot be a derivative from *cuŋa- 'gall, bile'. An attempt to trace the meaning of this root back to something like "turquoise (colour)" would require the presence of an additional stem-forming affix after the root, which is the common situation; however, no such affix is present.
