tempur

Inherited from Malay tempur, from Classical Malay تمڤور (tempur), from Old Javanese tĕmpur (“to knock against each other, to clash and become one heap or mass”), tampur, tampuh (“hitting; object, target, destination”), pūh (“broken, crushed, smashed”), probably from Proto-Mon-Khmer *puh (“to slap, to hit”) (compare Jehai poh (“to hit with a flat hand”), Khmer បុះ (boh, “to hit”)). Doublet of tempuh.

• The sense of rice is a semantic loan from Javanese ꦠꦼꦩ꧀ꦥꦸꦂ (tempur, “to buy up dehusked rice”) and Sundanese [Term?], from the same Old Javanese tĕmpur.
