perigi

From Malay perigi, from Proto-Malayic *pərigi, from (Western) Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *paʀigi (“artificially enclosed catchment for water; well, ditch”).[1] Similarity with Tamil பரிகை (parikai, “moat, ditch; mound within a rampart”) and Sanskrit परिखा (parikhā, “moat, ditch, trench or fosse round a town or fort”) is coincidental.
