proper noun/koˈlima/
a city and state of Mexico.
Borrowed from Classical Nahuatl Collimān (the name of a historic kingdom roughly situated in modern-day Colima), of uncertain exact further origin; however, the most probable proposed etymology is the following: * Based on the hieroglyph for Collimān in the Codex Mendoza, depicting a bent arm with a stream of water, the linguist Javier Bravo Magaña reconstructs a Classical Nahuatl *Ācollimān, derived from a compound of ātl (“water”) + acolli (literally “shoulder”) + -mān (locative suffix).
