Re: Res: [tied] fungus = mushroom

So may be connexion between

French SPHAIGNE = Latin/Greek SPHAGNUM/SPHAGNOS = moss

and

FUNGUS/SPONGOS = mushroom = French mousseron

and other cognates IE

mushroom :

Georgian : Sok-o

Armenian: Sunk/Sung

Old Slave : Gomba from old (s)ghombos ?

English Spunk from Irish Sponnc (?) : Touchwood and courage

But Middle Irish Spongc = Tussilago

Outside IE

Magayar : Bolong Gomba (may be from Slave)

Mordve : Pango

Khanti : Panx

Samoyède : Punka

Ket : Hango

Tchoutchke : Pon/Ponmpo

Can we add English spunk, punk, to this set?
