AH>The reconstruction for (Pre-)Proto-Slavic *inmen is rather zero grade

Some more "loans" (???)

to the north:
- yukagir nim/niu
- tshuk   ninn
- jap     namu
- ainu    namup

to the south (with s-mobile)
- bask    izen
- semitc *s-m-n
- nub     esmi/esum

far east:
- indones. namma

I do not know or claim these to be cognates. But it might be.
