Particle

IPA: /nípá/ Forms: pa: [error-unknown-tag, romanization]
Etymology: According to MED, from နီး (ni:, “near”) + ပါး (pa:, “thin, sharp, sparse”), though STEDT instead derives the second component from a Proto-Lolo-Burmese *ba² (“nearby place, vicinity”), whence Lahu pa³ (“near”); see also အပါး (a.pa:, “vicinity”) (STEDT). Etymology templates: {{af|my|နီး|ပါး|t1=near|t2=thin, sharp, sparse}} နီး (ni:, “near”) + ပါး (pa:, “thin, sharp, sparse”), {{der|my|tbq-lob-pro|*ba²|t=nearby place, vicinity}} Proto-Lolo-Burmese *ba² (“nearby place, vicinity”), {{cog|lhu|pa³|t=near}} Lahu pa³ (“near”) Head templates: {{my-particle}} နီးပါး • (ni:pa:)
