Proto-Dravidian : *ámbali
Meaning : rice-water; rice gruel
Proto-North Dravidian : *amṛī Notes : The presence of the root in North Dravidian clearly validates its PDR status (otherwise one could argue that all Central Dravidian languages - as well as some South Dravidian ones - have borrowed the form from Telugu). // Present in 5/6 branches.

South Dravidian etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-South Dravidian : *ambali
Tamil : amalai
Tamil meaning : boiled rice
Tamil derivates : ampali porridge, esp. of rāgi (< Te.)
Kannada : ambali, ambakaḷa, ambila, ambuli, amli
Kannada meaning : pap or porridge made of jōḷa, rice, or rāgi, with buttermilk (also tamarind) generally added
Tulu : ambuli
Tulu meaning : pap or gruel of rāgi or rice
Notes : In DEDR Tam. ampali is marked as a borrowing from Telugu ambali. Regardless of whether this is correct, the alternate Tam. form amalai cannot be a regular correspondence, because -ai <> Tel. -i and -m- <> Tel. -mb-; we can only consider it a dialectal irregular variant. Kan. ambakaḷa < *ambal-kaḷa; for the second part of the compound cf., perhaps, Tel. kali (< *kaḷi) 'water in which rice has been washed'. The alternate explanation from *amba-kaḷa, without the final resonant, is much more dubious in the light of external data. Number in DED : 0174

Gondwan etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Gondi-Kui : *ambeli
Meaning : porridge, gruel
Notes : The Proto-Gondwan character of this root is dubious, especially since the regular reflex of PDR *-mb- in Gondi is -m-. Some, or all of the forms, could have been re-borrowed from Telugu.
