<kungoj> (tr. verb) 'to give the sacrament to', <kungohem>
(intr.) 'to take the sacrament'. Deverbative <kungatë> 'eucharist;
communion bread (wine). <Marr kungatën> 'to break the bread'.
There are opinions that this verb is from Latin <communicare>, but my
opinion is, taking into account its meaning, that it is from
<consecrare>.
