Etymology
Originally written as 乂. Now phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *ŋads) and ideogrammic compound (會意 /会意): phonetic 乂 (OC *ŋads, “to mow”) + semantic 刂 (“knife”). The phonetic component originally indicates a sickle, hence it also adds part of the meaning. From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *r-ŋa-p (“to mow, cut, reap”) (STEDT, Schuessler, 2007). Cognate with Tibetan རྔ་བ (rnga ba), བརྔས (brngas), and colloquial Western Tibetan རྔབ་བ (rngab ba), which Coblin (1986) and STEDT treat as more conservative.
