Sorry
but  I did not find a single word meaning "black" with H_d_m structure at this reference.
====================

As is clear from the Møller quote in
http://tech. groups.yahoo. com/group/ cybalist/ message/50938
in case you read it.

Arnaud :

this message is one light-year from being clear ?
what do you mean ?
==================
> From root '-a-m?- (glottal stop_glottalized m)

Weird nasal. I prefer /n,W/, nasal labiovelar.

Arnaud :
What makes you think *nw is less weird than *m?- ??
I have never imagined something like *nw as a phoneme !?
