Etymology 1[edit]
(This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “Are all these senses related? Some have proposed that these are all derived from the snake sense.”)
- "huge snake"
- Unclear. Compare
- Lao ກະບາ (ka bā, “a kind of viper; Agkistrodon rhodostoma (modern)”), where ກະ (ka) is possibly an animal prefix (Schuessler, 2007);
- Proto-Mon-Khmer *ɓəs (“snake”) (cf. Schuessler, 2007);
- Japhug qapri (“snake”), Brag-dbar Situ [Term?] (kha-prɐ̄j, “snake”), Cogtse Situ [Term?] (kha-brē, “snake”) (Zhang, Jacques, and Lai, 2019), which have been related to Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-b/m-ruːl (“snake”), whence Chinese 虺 (OC *hŋlulʔ, “viper”), Tibetan སྦྲུལ (sbrul, “snake”).
