ammang

== Ao == === Etymology === From Proto-Central Naga *a-ma(ŋ). === Noun === ammang (Chungli) darkness ==== Usage notes ==== Bruhn defines this word as a verb (which its Mongsen counterpart is) but in Chungli it is generally attested as a noun. The standard Biblical spelling distinguishes by spelling ammang "night" and amang (“to believe”). The doubling of m has no phonetic significance. === Further reading === Bruhn, Daniel Wayne (2014), A Phonological Reconstruction of Proto-Central Naga‎[1], Berkeley: University of California, pages 78, 241 Gowda, K.
