| alternative forms | 歐 original form 𠴰 㰶 𣢨 𧖼 | |
Ultimately onomatopoeic (Schuessler, 2007).
STEDT derives this from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *ʔaw (“to vomit”), comparing it to Burmese အော့ (au.).
Alternatively, it may be cognate with Tibetan སྐྱུག (skyug) (Schuessler, 2007) and Japhug qioʁ (Zhang, Jacques, and Lai, 2019).
