4 candidate readings from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. The diam7/diang7 pair appears in the dossier's Hakka/Southern-Min-dialectal sense block alongside tiam5/tiang5 for the same 'quiet; calm' meaning, rather than marking a separate word, so all four are kept together.
