Etymology

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Doesn't appear to be mentioned by STEDT, while Luce tentatively compares the second syllable to Old Chinese 離 (OC *reːls, *rel, *rels, “to leave, go away, separate”).[1] MED treats the word as an atomic unit, which appears reasonable as the constituent syllables don't seem to contribute to the overall meaning. Is this a borrowing from Mon or some other language?”
