Etymology 1

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Considered native Hmongic by Ratliff, though no reconstructed proto-form is given.[1] There's a resemblance to Old Chinese (OC *deː, *dje, “to raise, carry, lift”), though there doesn't seem to be an "r" in the Old Chinese form (the proto-Hmongic form would look something like *tri), as well as the Sinitic term converying more "carry by hand" connotations (though shoulders and back are acceptable referents as well).

The metaphorical "accepting, obedient" senses are most likely semantic extensions of the "carry" meaning.”
