Etymology[edit]

From Pali kamma (“action; activity”), probably via Old Khmer -កម្ម (-kamma, “action, deed”), probably with some input from Sanskrit कर्मन् (karman, “action; activity”); (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?) probably via Old Khmer -កម៌្ម (-karmma, “action, deed”). The regular derivative of the Sanskrit word is synonymous กรรม์ (gan).
