คณบดี
Thai
Etymology
From Sanskrit गणपति (gaṇapati, literally “chief of a group”), from गण (gaṇa, “group”) + पति (pati, “chief; lord; master”); equivalent to Thai คณ (ká-ná-, “group, body; higher education faculty; etc”) + บดี (bɔɔ-dii, “chief; lord; master; leader; commander; etc”). Cognate with Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 1 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "mkh-okm" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF..
