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.
