510 A DICTIONARY SUN D ANP] SE 



Tumbal, to ward off, to avert'by prayer or invocation (Jarripé). Thus a Tambal is made 

 at a forest or jungle that is to be cut down for a plantation. It is also done at any 

 place where we want to work in order to avoid evil , and not be overtaken by disease. 

 Anything hung up by way of a Jampé, as various roots , leaves , etc. Tumbal is thus 

 a superstitious observance of the natives on certain occasions. Tambol, sorcery , in 

 Malay , see Crawfurd's Dissertation , page 197. 



ïumbu, to shoot up, to come upas seed from the ground. Toshoot, to vegetate. The 

 etymon of the word is Wu or Bhu, C. 688, to be , with ü and am prefixed and thus 

 indicating: in the act of becoming. In the Bisaya language of the Philippine Is- 

 lands , the word is called Tabu, to grow , Crawfurd's Dissertation, page 116 , and even 

 at the Tonga Islands of the Pacific Tubu is the word used for: to spring up 

 as plants. The Sunda word has thus the peculiar M inserted to iraply continuity. See 

 Tumagung. In the Maori of New Zealand Tupu , is to shoot or sprout. Tubuni or 

 Tumbani, C. 238, plantation, the act of planting trees, labours in a nursery. 



Turn buk, to pound, to stamp. To strike with the clenched fist. To drive as a pile of 

 wood. To thump down. Compounded from the partiele Ta and Buk, with the pecu- 

 liar um placed between them. 



Tumbung, pudendum muliebre. In Malay Tumbung means : the seed of plants, evi- 

 dently from Tumbu, to shoot up. Thus the Sunda word will literaly convey the 

 idea of the place whence the human race springs. In Malay also Crawfurd gives 

 Tumbung, prolapsus uteri vel ani. The final ng thus modifies the sense a little. 

 Tumbong in Malay also, Marsden, page 81, is a hole in the surface of anything 

 hollow; a vent or spile-hole; the anus. Tumbong kalapa, the hole in a cocoa-nut 

 from whence it sprouts.

 would say breeding like a rabbit.

 and through which a man can with difficulty make bis way from the density of the

 would give no ear to our endeavours to pass.
