Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *mraːŋs) : semantic (child; son) + phonetic (OC *maŋʔ)

Etymology

edit

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *maŋ (big; old; elder (brother, uncle)); cognate with Anong ʈhi³¹ mɑŋ³¹ (old; elderly), Drung tvmvng (elder sibling), Burmese မင်း (mang:, monarch; king) (Schuessler, 2007; STEDT).

Likely related to (OC *hmraŋ, “older brother”) (Sagart, 1999; STEDT). Perhaps also related to (OC *maːŋ, *maŋ, “great; extensive”) and (OC *hmaːŋ, *hmaːŋs, “vast; excessive; senile”) (Sagart, 1999; Schuessler, 2007).
