"txha" meaning in All languages combined

See txha on Wiktionary

Noun [White Hmong]

IPA: /t͡sʰa˧/
Etymology: From Proto-Hmong-Mien *tshuŋX (“bone”). Peiros suggests a relation with Proto-Mon-Khmer *cʔaaŋ ~ *cʔaiŋ (“bone”), whence Vietnamese xương (“bone, skeleton”); however, there are phonetic issues due to the presence of labial initials in Mienic forms.
