"tʰʲuŋ" meaning in All languages combined

See tʰʲuŋ on Wiktionary

Adjective [Proto-Bodish]

Etymology: There is another nigh-identical Bodish adjective, but with an unpalatalized initial, which gave rise to Tibetan ཐུང (thung, “short”). Jacques further sees a potential link between this word and Tibetan སྨྱུང (smyung, “to reduce”) and ཉུང (nyung, “little”), the latter being from *ŋʲuŋ. Etymology templates: {{noncog|bo|ཐུང|t=short}} Tibetan ཐུང (thung, “short”), {{m+|bo|སྨྱུང|t=to reduce}} Tibetan སྨྱུང (smyung, “to reduce”) Head templates: {{head|sit-bdi-pro|adjective}} *tʰʲuŋ
