  4. This sense of gum is a result of semantic change from the original "palate".
  5. Equal to Chinese 上顎 (shàng'è), 口蓋 (kǒugài), (è) "palate, roof of mouth"
  6. Together with the Chinese counterpart 上顎, this makes sense of "palate, roof of the mouth" at last.
  7. This is the most precise and least concise. Korean 웃거흠 is more precise and less concise than Korean 거흠.
  8. (derived from Old English goma, Old High German goumo "palate")
