measure,=tamale(mex/cornpone flapjack)=tamaño(sp)=size, and, chiua(N)=do,=
chi-/on top own/-ua(N)=Chi-uaua(mex state)=ual-chiua(N)=walsh/welch(country)=

on top, the complex but early way to say, co(n)quer=acoquetza(N)=get on top,=
coquette(Fr)=coq(Fr)=cock/gallo/rooster(on top), so the welch/walsh/wales was

hmmm, let's go global tamaño with tartan/tatamachiua/tamale=
tatami(Japonica)=mat.

tatamu(J)=fold(up clothes, a map=mapiloa(N)/point=mapilli(N)=thumb,=ma(r)fil(sp)=
ivory=ivery=iueli(N)=powerful, shut/wind up one's business, down with him!,
roll up bedding.
an addition to Tlatla(N)=Llama/flame(E)=T/L=Latah=incubus, cf., Tletl, post: Lata:
tatara(Japonica)=furnace.
tatari(J)=a curse, evil spell.
tataru(J)=curse, spell, haunt, torment. tlatla(N)=Latah(Arab/Malay/Indonesia).
the Japonica form is the closest and earliest, suggesting that the Latah idea
