Etymology 1

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *baːr (“to bloom; flower”), which is perhaps an areal word (compare Proto-Hmong-Mien *bi̯aŋ (“flower”)). Cognate with Tibetan (ḥbar-ba, “to blossom”), Old Chinese 葩 (OC *pʰraː, “flower”), 疤 (OC *praː, “scar”) (STEDT). The "red, pink" sense is derived from how the color of many flowers is pink.

Etymology 3

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Not given etymology by STEDT (pân "spurt, gush out"), and not mentioned by Luce 1981. Based on derived terms like မီးပန်း (mi:pan:, “fireworks”), could this be an extension of the "flower" sense, via "bloom" > "burst out" > "gush out"? Note Chinese 火花 (huǒhuā, “fireworks”) for a semantic parallel.”

Verb

ပန်း • (pan:)

  1. to gush out, spurt out

Etymology 5

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Not given etymology by STEDT (pɑn³ pɑi³ shɑ¹ rɑɑ² "blacksmith"), and Luce adduces no cognates;[3] MED considers this separate from Etymology 1. Perhaps a semantic extension of Etymology 1 ("flower" > "florid work" > "arts and crafts")? For a semantic parallel, compare Punjabi ਫੁਲਕਾਰੀ (phulkārī, “traditional Punjabi embroidery”). Lots of derived terms listed for the "flower" sense refer to "embroidery", suggesting that the "art" sense is a semantic extension.”

Noun

ပန်း • (pan:)

  1. generic term for traditional arts and crafts: art
