Proto-Tungus-Manchu: *kurumV
Meaning: a k. of upper clothes
Russian meaning: вид верхней одежды
Evenki: kurmu, dial. kumma 'fur stockings; women's upper garment'
Even: kummēs 'hat, cap'
Literary Manchu: kurume
Nanai: kurme
Comments: See ТМС 1, 174, 431, 437. The Evk. form gurumī reflects a secondary merger with *gurē- 'to unfasten'; Mong. kürme 'upper coat' is most probably borrowed from Manchu (despite Doerfer MT 144, proposing an opposite direction), just like Kor. khurimä id. (see Lee 1958, 119).
