Glyph origin

Etymology

[edit]

Sino-Tibetan: Tibetan རུ་མ (ru ma, curdled milk), Jingpho ru31- (liquor). Similar-looking words in Tai-Kadai may be Han or post-Han loans; cf. Proto-Tai *ʰlawꟲ (liquor) (Thai เหล้า (lâo)) (Schuessler, 2007).

Compare also Proto-Vietic *raːwʔ, whence Vietnamese rượu, Muong Bi rão, Tho [Cuối Chăm] riɛw⁴, Proto-Pong *riɛw⁴.

Pronunciation

  • lo5 - vernacular;
