Etymology
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *p(r/j)a (“skin”) (STEDT). This form likely represents the root while 皮 (OC *bral) is its derivative with a voicing prefix, most likely PST *m-, found in several OC words for body parts like 鼻 (OC *m-bi-s, “nose”), 肚 (OC *m-tˤaʔ, “belly”), 右 (OC *ʷəʔ-s (~ *m-qʷəʔ), “right-hand”) and 頭 (OC *ˤo, “head”) (Baxter & Sagart, 2014).
