The hair-do called in Hung. <konty> is an extremely
remote kinship, in contrast with Lat. <coma> "mane"
and its adjectivation with a participial form <comatus,
comata, comatum>. Both refer to hair, but Hung. konty
means... arrangement, discipline, something compulsory
(be it because of fad/fashion), whereas Lat. coma
means... freedom. :^)
