Proto-Tungus-Manchu: *pise-
Altaic etymology: Altaic etymology
Meaning: 1 seed, offspring; kin 2 millet
Russian meaning: 1 семя, приплод; племя 2 просо
Even: hese-n 1 (Okh.)
Literary Manchu: fise-n 1, fisi-ke 2
Ulcha: pikse 2
Nanai: pikse, Kur-Urm. fisxe 2
Comments: See ТМС 2, 38 (where the Nan. and Ul. forms are qualified as borrowed from Manchu, which is hardly justified; Oroch pikse is < Ul.), 300, 371. One should probably unite the Manchu stems 'breed, offspring' and 'millet' (*'seed'). The -e-vowel in Even is not quite clear.
