Etymology[edit]

From Old Khmer បោស៑ (pos), ប្វាស៑ (pvās), or Angkorian Old Khmer ប្វស៑ (pvas), ប្វាស៑ (pvās, “to be initiated into holy orders; to enter holy orders; to be in holy orders”); extended as បំនោស៑ (paṃnos), បំន្វាស៑ (paṃnvās), ប្នោស៑ (pnos), from which Thai ผนวช (pà-nùuat) is derived. The final is also changed to ช to correspond Pali pabbajjā. Cognate with Modern Khmer បួស (buəh), Lao ບວດ (būat).
