Glyph origin

[edit]

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *kʰrolʔ, *ɡrolʔ) : semantic (foot) + phonetic (OC *ŋrol). However, the phonetic component shows (perhaps by chance) a person kneeling on the ground.

Etymology

[edit]

Perhaps connected with Proto-Vietic *t-kuːlʔ (> Vietnamese gối (knee)) (Schuessler, 2007). For the semantic relationship, compare English kneel. Also compare Proto-Sino-Tibetan *koj (bend; curved; lap; bosom), whence Burmese ခွေ (hkwe, to coil; hoop) (STEDT).

Pronunciation

[edit]

Note:
  • 3jjy - colloquial;
  • 3gue - literary.
