Sanskrit himá (76)
According to Monier-Williams’ A Sanskrit-English Dictionary, Sanskrit word himá means “cold, frost; the cold season, winter; the sandal tree; the moon; and camphor.” It is linguistically related to terms in other Indo-European languages, such as Zend zima; Greek χιμoς (chymós), χιώυ (chióy), χєμώυ (chêmóy); Latin bīmus for bihimus, hiems; Slavonic zima; and Lithuanian żēmá. However, it traces its origin to the Tamil root imai through the transformation of imai > cimai > himá. The following words, related to Sanskrit himá, also originate from the Tamil root imai.
