Etymology

From Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 2 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., which was probably derived from Western Cham [script needed] (jalơy); or from Old Mon jlūy (one carried off during military operations). Cognate with Modern Khmer ឈ្លើយ (chləəy, captive), Lao ຊະເລີຍ (sa lœ̄i, captive).
