Etymology

[edit]

First created in the Han era [104 BCE]. According to commentaries to the Book of Han by Zhang Yan (張晏, c. 3rd century?) as collected by Yan Shigu (581–645) much later, and also Yan's own commentary, (OC *kraŋ) was interpreted as "high, elevated, grand" and (OC *l'ewʔ) referred to "multitudes; populous". Both were also used as the names for certain large numbers in Chinese.
