Etymology
Modern pronunciations resulted from lenition of 在 (MC dzojX|dzojH) and irregular evolution of 居 (MC ki|kjo) (Zhengzhang, 2008).
Alternatively Qian (1997) considers the second character to be cognate of the written form 介 found in late imperial Northern Wu literature.
Pronunciation
- Wu (Northern, Wugniu): 6le-ke; 6la-ke; 8laq-ke; 8leq-ke / 2le-ke1; 8leq-ke1 / 2lai-kei1 / 6laq8-ji6
Verb
在居 (Northern Wu)
- to be at, to be in
