Etymology
Sino-Tibetan: Tibetan རུ་མ (ru ma, “curdled milk”), Jingpho ru31- (“liquor”). Similar-looking words in Tai-Kadai may be Han or post-Han loans; cf. Proto-Tai *ʰlawꟲ (“liquor”) (Thai เหล้า (lâo)) (Schuessler, 2007).
Compare also Proto-Vietic *raːwʔ, whence Vietnamese rượu, Muong Bi rão, Tho riɛw⁴, Proto-Pong *riɛw⁴.
