This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “Not given etymology by STEDT (chûi "bad, vicious, wicked"). Luce gives Old Chinese莠 (OC *luʔ, “green foxtail; (figuratively) bad”) as a potential cognate,[2] though modern reconstructions of the Old pronunciation do not support this. Also bears some resemblance to Old Chinese餿 (OC *sru, “rancid, spoiled”).
In addition, for the compound ချောင်းဆိုး(hkyaung:hcui:, “to cough”), the second syllable ဆိုး(hcui:), is traditionally taken by Burmese scholarship to denote the sense of "bad, serious" as in the above. That said, it could possibly have a unique sense of "to cough" here, and be related to Old Chinese嗽 (OC *sloːɡs, *sroːɡ, *sloːɡ, “to cough”).”
This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “Not given etymology by STEDT (chûi "dye"). Luce gives Old Chinese皂 (OC *zuːʔ, “black (dye); soap”) as a cognate.[3] Also looks a bit like Proto-Sino-Tibetan*m-tsəw-s/t(“to color, dye”), whence 彩 (OC *sʰɯːʔ, “rich colors, vibrance”).”
