Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *tʰjaŋs) : semantic + phonetic (OC *tʰjaŋ).

Etymology 1

edit
simp. and trad.

Same word as (OC *tʰjaŋs, “to lead; to advocate”). Schuessler (2007), reconstructing the Old Chinese minimally as *k-hlaŋh, considers it to be a Sino-Tibetan word; compare Burmese အချင်း (a.hkyang:, song, poem) and perhaps also Proto-Bodo-Garo *lʔəŋ (to sing).
