Etymology: Uncertain. Nihon Kokugo Daijiten cites numerous theories from earlier dictionaries. These include: * Shortened from チリゴミ (chirigomi “dispersed in; scattered upon”); see 散(ち)る (chiru), 込(こ)む (komu) * From コミ (komi “flooding”), perhaps from waste dispersed in flood waters * Shortened from コヅミ (kozumi “stacks; that which accumulates”); see 積(つむ) (tsumu) * From クヅツミ(屑積) (kuzutsumi “waste”); see 屑(くず) (kuzu) * From ゴ (go), a regionalism meaning “pine needles” Other authors note that go is used for “leaves” as well as “pine needles” in various regions of Japan.
