Etymology

[edit]
This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Not given etymology by STEDT (hu "say, declare; mean"). Luce 1981's comparison with Old Chinese (OC *ŋaʔ, *ŋas, “to speak, say”) is phonetically unconvincing, even considering the poorly-resolved correspondences of Burmese "h" initials.”
