Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *klaːŋ): semantic 牛 (“ox”) + phonetic 岡 (OC *klaːŋ).
Etymology
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *gaŋ (“penis, male”) (STEDT).
Schuessler, (2007) minimally reconstructs OC *kâŋ from earlier *klaŋ and proposed OC word's cognacy to Mru klaŋ, Mizo tlaŋ (“male”), Karbi chè lóŋ (“buffalo”), and Tibetan གླང (glang, “ox”), the latter four from Proto-Tibeto-Burman *laŋ with animal prefix *s- or *k-; if so, from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *b/m-laŋ (“penis, male, husband”) (STEDT).
Gong (1995) instead relates Tibetan གླང (glang, “ox”) to Old Chinese 象 (OC *ljaŋʔ) "elephant".
Zev Handel also notes 犅 (OC *klaːŋ)'s parallel etymology with its homophone 岡 (OC *klaːŋ) "ridge" (Mand. gāng) in the same phonetic series.
