"လည်" meaning in Burmese

See လည် in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /lɛ̀/ Forms: lany [romanization]
Etymology: The "neck" sense is from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *g/m-liŋ (“neck”) (STEDT), and cognate with Old Chinese 領 (OC *reŋʔ). The other senses are grouped by MED, and may be etymologically connected, though other theories separate them: * The "rotate" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (lɑȵ² "rotate / spin"). Luce gives Old Chinese 輪 (OC *run, “wheel; turns, rounds”) as a cognate. While semantically solid, the phonetics deviate enough to make a formal relation to the Chinese difficult. There is also a chance, as mentioned above, that this is a derivative of the "neck" sense; for a semantic parallel in an unrelated language, compare Latin collum (“neck”). * The "understand" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (nɑ⁵⁵ lɛ²² "understand / grasp"). Perhaps a back-formation of နားလည် (na:lany), with the original interpretation of လည် (lany) being in the sense of "rotate" > "made rounds" > "well-versed"? Okell's "Burmese (Myanmar): An Introduction to the Spoken Language, Book 1", page 198, #18 of the Common Phrases Supplement section explains it as such. Additionally bears resemblance to Old Chinese 諒 (*ɡ·raŋs, “to forgive; to believe; truth”).

  "etymology_text": "The \"neck\" sense is from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *g/m-liŋ (“neck”) (STEDT), and cognate with Old Chinese 領 (OC *reŋʔ).\nThe other senses are grouped by MED, and may be etymologically connected, though other theories separate them:\n* The \"rotate\" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (lɑȵ² \"rotate / spin\"). Luce gives Old Chinese 輪 (OC *run, “wheel; turns, rounds”) as a cognate. While semantically solid, the phonetics deviate enough to make a formal relation to the Chinese difficult. There is also a chance, as mentioned above, that this is a derivative of the \"neck\" sense; for a semantic parallel in an unrelated language, compare Latin collum (“neck”).\n* The \"understand\" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (nɑ⁵⁵ lɛ²² \"understand / grasp\"). Perhaps a back-formation of နားလည် (na:lany), with the original interpretation of လည် (lany) being in the sense of \"rotate\" > \"made rounds\" > \"well-versed\"? Okell's \"Burmese (Myanmar): An Introduction to the Spoken Language, Book 1\", page 198, #18 of the Common Phrases Supplement section explains it as such. Additionally bears resemblance to Old Chinese 諒 (*ɡ·raŋs, “to forgive; to believe; truth”).",

  "etymology_text": "The \"neck\" sense is from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *g/m-liŋ (“neck”) (STEDT), and cognate with Old Chinese 領 (OC *reŋʔ).\nThe other senses are grouped by MED, and may be etymologically connected, though other theories separate them:\n* The \"rotate\" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (lɑȵ² \"rotate / spin\"). Luce gives Old Chinese 輪 (OC *run, “wheel; turns, rounds”) as a cognate. While semantically solid, the phonetics deviate enough to make a formal relation to the Chinese difficult. There is also a chance, as mentioned above, that this is a derivative of the \"neck\" sense; for a semantic parallel in an unrelated language, compare Latin collum (“neck”).\n* The \"understand\" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (nɑ⁵⁵ lɛ²² \"understand / grasp\"). Perhaps a back-formation of နားလည် (na:lany), with the original interpretation of လည် (lany) being in the sense of \"rotate\" > \"made rounds\" > \"well-versed\"? Okell's \"Burmese (Myanmar): An Introduction to the Spoken Language, Book 1\", page 198, #18 of the Common Phrases Supplement section explains it as such. Additionally bears resemblance to Old Chinese 諒 (*ɡ·raŋs, “to forgive; to believe; truth”).",

  "etymology_text": "The \"neck\" sense is from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *g/m-liŋ (“neck”) (STEDT), and cognate with Old Chinese 領 (OC *reŋʔ).\nThe other senses are grouped by MED, and may be etymologically connected, though other theories separate them:\n* The \"rotate\" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (lɑȵ² \"rotate / spin\"). Luce gives Old Chinese 輪 (OC *run, “wheel; turns, rounds”) as a cognate. While semantically solid, the phonetics deviate enough to make a formal relation to the Chinese difficult. There is also a chance, as mentioned above, that this is a derivative of the \"neck\" sense; for a semantic parallel in an unrelated language, compare Latin collum (“neck”).\n* The \"understand\" sense is not given etymology by STEDT (nɑ⁵⁵ lɛ²² \"understand / grasp\"). Perhaps a back-formation of နားလည် (na:lany), with the original interpretation of လည် (lany) being in the sense of \"rotate\" > \"made rounds\" > \"well-versed\"? Okell's \"Burmese (Myanmar): An Introduction to the Spoken Language, Book 1\", page 198, #18 of the Common Phrases Supplement section explains it as such. Additionally bears resemblance to Old Chinese 諒 (*ɡ·raŋs, “to forgive; to believe; truth”).",
