Numerous English words contain the word "drum" either as a root or as a compound element. Common examples include drumstick (the wooden stick used to play percussion instruments), drummer (a person who plays the drums), drumbeat (the rhythmic sound produced by striking a drum), kettledrum (a large orchestral percussion instrument), eardrum (the anatomical tympanic membrane in human hearing), overdrum, and humdrum (an adjective meaning dull, monotonous, or boringly routine day-to-day work tasks).
