Noun [Proto-Sino-Tibetan]

Etymology: * Proto-Sino-Tibetan: ? ** Proto-Tibeto-Burman: *r-paj (Matisoff, STEDT); *paj ⪤ *plaj (Matisoff, 1978) In Jingpho the word for spleen is represented by compounds like kanpai, hkumpai ~ kumpai ~ gumpai, hkinpai and sinpai, in which the first element appears to be a body-part classifier and the second is the reflex of PTB *r-paj itself. In these compounds, the morpheme kan means “stomach” when it occurs in isolation, while hkum ~ kum ~ gum is a generic body-part classifier, probably from PTB *(k/g)um (“back, body”). The last compound seems to be formed by the word sin, meaning “liver”. Particular attention must be paid to distinguish between direct cognates of this root in Sino-Tibetan languages and the borrowing from Sanskrit प्लिहन् (plihan, “spleen”) or Bengali প্লীহা (pliha, “spleen”), coming from Proto-Indo-Iranian *(s)pl̥ȷ́ʰā́ ~ (s)plīȷ́ʰā́, which is ultimately derived from Proto-Indo-European *(s)plenǵʰ- (“spleen”), that in turn gave rise to Ancient Greek σπλήν (splḗn) and English spleen, but which doesn't seem related to PTB *r-paj. Finally, this root is similar to PTB *r-(p/b)al (“spleen”), which, apart from a phonetic resemblance, shares the same meaning with the root *r-paj.

  "etymology_text": "* Proto-Sino-Tibetan: ?\n** Proto-Tibeto-Burman: *r-paj (Matisoff, STEDT); *paj ⪤ *plaj (Matisoff, 1978)\nIn Jingpho the word for spleen is represented by compounds like kanpai, hkumpai ~ kumpai ~ gumpai, hkinpai and sinpai, in which the first element appears to be a body-part classifier and the second is the reflex of PTB *r-paj itself. In these compounds, the morpheme kan means “stomach” when it occurs in isolation, while hkum ~ kum ~ gum is a generic body-part classifier, probably from PTB *(k/g)um (“back, body”). The last compound seems to be formed by the word sin, meaning “liver”.\nParticular attention must be paid to distinguish between direct cognates of this root in Sino-Tibetan languages and the borrowing from Sanskrit प्लिहन् (plihan, “spleen”) or Bengali প্লীহা (pliha, “spleen”), coming from Proto-Indo-Iranian *(s)pl̥ȷ́ʰā́ ~ (s)plīȷ́ʰā́, which is ultimately derived from Proto-Indo-European *(s)plenǵʰ- (“spleen”), that in turn gave rise to Ancient Greek σπλήν (splḗn) and English spleen, but which doesn't seem related to PTB *r-paj.\nFinally, this root is similar to PTB *r-(p/b)al (“spleen”), which, apart from a phonetic resemblance, shares the same meaning with the root *r-paj.",
