Glyph origin

edit

Originally , an ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意) : (walking) + (foot) – "to travel far". The stroke at the top started being added as a distinguishing mark at the end of the Warring States period, as a way to distinguish its usage from as an adverb to mean "prolonged", making it an Ideogram (指事) .[1][2][3]

Shuowen Jiezi interprets it as phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *lan, *lans) : phonetic 丿 (OC *pʰleːd, *leds) + semantic .

Etymology

edit

Within Chinese, cognate with (OC *lan, “bamboo mat”), (OC *l̥ʰan, “long (of wood)”) and (OC *l'aːnʔ, “wide; ludicrous”) (Schuessler, 2007). Cognate with Burmese လှန်း (hlan:, to dry (things) in the sun). Probably unrelated to Proto-Tibeto-Burman *jaːr (spread; extend; sail), whence Tibetan གཡོར་མོ (g.yor mo, sail), Mizo zâr (to spread; to spread out), Jingpho yàn (spread; unrolled).

Pan (1987) suggests Vietnamese lan (to spread) is borrowed from Old Chinese (OC *lan, *lans).
