"ပယင်း" meaning in All languages combined

See ပယင်း on Wiktionary

Noun [Burmese]

IPA: /pəjɪ́ɴ/ Forms: pa.yang: [romanization]
Etymology: According to MED, borrowed from Pali piyaṅga, though such a term is not listed in the Pali-English Dictionary. The Pali term appears to possibly stem from the Sanskrit root पी (pī, “to fatten”), with semantic shift "fat" > "yellow" > "yellow mineral"; for a semantic parallel from this root, compare perhaps Sanskrit पीत (pīta, “yellow”). Etymology templates: {{bor+|my|pi|piyaṅga|nocap=1}} borrowed from Pali piyaṅga, {{cog|sa|पीत|t=yellow}} Sanskrit पीत (pīta, “yellow”) Head templates: {{my-noun}} ပယင်း • (pa.yang:)
