\data\alt\altet
Proto-Altaic: *kaĺbo
Meaning: girdle, waist
Russian meaning: пояс, поясница
Turkic: *Koĺa- (*Kuĺa-)
Tungus-Manchu: *kalbu
Korean: *kurǝi
Comments: The root is well attested in TM, but other parallels are somewhat questionable: the Turkic word is attested late and may be derived from *Koĺ- 'join, unite'; on the Korean word see above.
