Kachin: kreŋ3 a vital part, the injury of which insures speedy death.

Lepcha: jăŋ, jŏŋ brain, marrow (?)
Comments: PG *ṭaŋ brain; Mikir arkleŋ; Dimasa buthluŋ ~ bithlim brain. Ben. 39, Gong 73. The root is actively interacting with *(r)kăŋ foot, leg and *(k)rāŋ bone (q. v.), which explains some irregularities.

Comments: Sh. 410. Cf. also Mikir arkoŋ shin (which, however, can be also related to Lush. kōŋ loins, see *k(h)ōŋ). If Jnp. lǝgoŋ is a secondary nasalized form of lǝgo1 (see *kʷā(H)), the reconstruction becomes rather dubious.
