etymology

Sukientia (2026) hazards mun-cir-o, 'the grass scatters (?)' — the question mark is his own. Chiri 1987 (§402) gives the phonemic shape mún-ci-ro without a semantic segmentation and uses munciro unsegmented inside larger plant names (nitne-munciro, pusi-tanne-munciro, e-petke-munciro). The variant minciro (mín-ci-ro) is recorded for Higashi-shizunai and Ogifu (Chiri 1987) and for Samani (Tomita 2021).
