Etymology

edit

May be from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *(d/n)waj (“to hang from; to cling to; creeper”) (STEDT), whence Burmese တွဲ (twai:, “to link; drooping, hanging”). Compare also the following Sinitic words:

  • 睡 (OC *djols, “to sleep”)
  • 朵 (OC *toːlʔ, “to hang from a tree; classifier for blossoms”)
  • 鬌 (OC *ʔl'oːlʔ, *l'oːlʔ, *l'ol, “portion of hair left on a child after a haircut”)
  • 橢 (OC *l̥ʰoːlʔ, “oblong, oval”)
  • 惰 (OC *l'oːlʔ, *l'oːls, “lazy, negligent”)
  • 緌 (OC *njul, “tassel”)
  • 蕊 (OC *ŋljolʔ, *ŋljulʔ, “reproductive organ of flower”)
  • 繠 (OC *ŋljolʔ, *ŋljulʔ, “to hang down”)

Pronunciation

edit
Note:
  • sûi - literary;
  • sêr/sê/sôe - vernacular.
Note:
  • suê5 - “listless; wilted”.
