Galela-Loloda
[edit]Galela-Loloda *'u.dom
[edit]- (transitive) to drink
- Related to Tobelo udoudomo (“drinking cup”), which Baarda says derives from Galela. However, this doesn't explain the final m, unless the form is instead from Loloda. Could alternatively have been inherited as well.

[edit]- chest (of body)
☆ May be related to PNH *'ga.te(r) ("liver") if we also have the secondary meaning of "heart".

- Waioli: gatere
- Gamkonora: gatel
