Only in a few spots does Indonesia preserve the primal stem of this 
word, in Menado of north Celebes and in Ceram, and with the minimum 
of mutation in the tongue of the Kayans in North Borneo, a region of 
the early settlement of the Malayan races. Beyond these few points 
we have a long line of mutants which become simple of comprehension 
when we observe that the range is up and down the lingual column.

In the Indian archipelago the sense lacks specific character; it is 
the yam where that plant occurs; elsewhere it is the sweet potato; in 
other cases it is defined as an edible tuber in general. 
But there can 
be no doubt about the identity of the word.
