Etymology

edit

From Pali parihāra (attention, care, protection; honour, privilege, dignity; etc) or Sanskrit परिहार (parihāra, reserve; objection; repetition (of a word); etc); perhaps via Old Khmer parihāra, parihār, paribhāra (to have charge (of); to manage; to administer; etc). Cognate with Modern Khmer បរិហារ (bɑɑrihaa); Lao ບໍຣິຫານ (bǭ ri hān).
