Noun

rumen (plural rumina or rumens)

1. The first compartment of the stomach of a cow or other ruminants.

   Synonyms: paunch, fack, fardingbag

   Hypernyms: compartment, tripe

   Coordinate terms: abomasum, omasum, reticulum

   • 2013 [1966], Robert E. Hungate, The Rumen and Its Microbes, Elsevier, →ISBN, page 162:

     In the newborn ruminant the abomasum is about as large as the rumen and remains relatively large as long as only milk is consumed (Brugnone, 1809). As the young ruminant consumes forages, the reticulum, and particularly the rumen, develop rapidly.

Etymology

From Proto-Italic *roug(s)mən ~ *rug(s)mən, of somewhat disputed origin. Probably from the root of *rūgō +‎ -men, attested in ērūgō, rūctō (“I belch”) and rugiō (“I roar, rumble, bray”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁rewg-, *h₁rewǵ- (“to belch”).

Cognate with Ancient Greek ἐρεύγομαι (ereúgomai, “I spew out, discharge, belch, bellow”), Old Armenian ործամ (orcam, “I vomit, am nauseated”), Proto-Germanic *reukaną (“to smoke, emit vapor”) (modern English reek).

Alternatively from Proto-Indo-European *sréwmn̥, from the root *srew- (“to flow”). (Can this⁽⁺⁾ etymology be sourced?) See also Rōma and flūmen, which are sometimes hypothesized as from the same source.
A third possibility is a relationship with Etruscan 𐌓𐌖𐌌 (rum, “teat”). If not coincidental, it may be equally likely that the Etruscan word was borrowed from Latin.

Pronunciation

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /ˈruː.men/, [ˈruːmɛn]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ˈru.men/, [ˈruːmen]

Noun

rumen m (plural rúmenes)

1. rumen
   • 2022 November 10, María Teresa Paramio, “¿Es nueva la producción de alimentos en macrogranjas?”, in El País‎^[2]:

     El amoniaco procede de las heces y la orina de los animales; el CO₂ de su respiración y el metano lo expulsan los rumiantes por la boca, no por las ventosidades, como se dice frecuentemente, debido a la fermentación de los alimentos en su rumen, que es una de las partes del aparato digestivo de los rumiantes.
