Why the removal of 屋?

@Chuterix, 屋 appears to be attestable in Ryukyuan: https://www.jlect.com/search.php?r=%E5%B1%8B&l=ryukyu&group=words

Has your research found that this is a later borrowing, and not an inherited term? ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │^{Tala við mig} 22:46, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

The descendants were unsourced and @Kwékwlos told me I can source them on myself. But the house doesn't appear in Thorpe (1983), so obviously sound guessing. The entries I've created with cognates all around Ryukyuan have used various Japanese works. Chuterix (talk) 22:50, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Japanese at least traces this term 屋 (ya) back to at least the MYS, per the KDJ entry: https://kotobank.jp/word/%E5%B1%8B%E3%83%BB%E5%AE%B6%E3%83%BB%E8%88%8E-2088644

Unless we're positing that this was borrowed into Old Japanese from somewhere, presumably we should at least have a Proto-Japonic entry, even if the status of the Ryukyuan terms is unclear (i.e. inherited or borrowed from Japanese, as yet unclear). ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │^{Tala við mig} 06:30, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

@Eirikr: The descendants were created by Kwékwlos (talk • contribs); they were unsourced. Chuterix (talk) 11:51, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
