Proto-Nilgiri : *kaḷ-ǝm
Meaning : threshing floor
Kota : kaḷm "place for threshing, dancing"
Toda : koɫ̣ṇ (obl. koɫ̣t-)
Additional forms : Also Kota ? kavāl ground in front of house (i. e. ka+vāl; for the latter see 5354)
Notes : Toda koɫ̣ṇ is unclear - it corresponds better to the Tamil variant kaḷan_ than to the more frequent kaḷam, but in that case it could simply be a borrowing from Tamil.
Number in DED : 1376
