Glyph originEdit

Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *sʰleŋ): semantic (water) + phonetic (OC *sʰleːŋ).

Etymology 1Edit

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *(t)s(j)aŋ (clear; pure; clean); cognate with Tibetan གཙང (gtsang, clean; pure), Mizo thiang (to be clear; to be clean; to be pure), Southern Qiang ɕó, Drung cangma (clean) (Schuessler, 2007; STEDT).

Within Chinese, cognate with (OC *zeŋs, “clean”), (OC *seːŋ, *seːŋʔ, *seːŋs, “to wake up; to become sober”), and allofamic with (OC *sleːŋ, “star”), (OC *zleŋ, “(of weather) clear; fine”); possibly also related to (OC *zleŋʔ, “quiet”) (Schuessler, 2007).

Perhaps an areal word; compare Proto-Mon-Khmer *caŋ (to glitter) (Schuessler, 2007).
