Noun

IPA: /bahaɡˈhaɾiʔ/ [Standard-Tagalog], [bɐ.hɐɡˈhaː.ɾɪʔ] [Standard-Tagalog], /bahaɡˈhaɾeʔ/ [Standard-Tagalog], [bɐ.hɐɡˈhaː.ɾɛʔ] [Standard-Tagalog] Forms: bahagharì [canonical], ᜊᜑᜄ᜔ᜑᜇᜒ [Baybayin], bahag-hari [alternative], balaghari [alternative]
Rhymes: -aɾiʔ Etymology: Commonly believed to be from bahag (“loincloth”) + hari (“king”). For this etymology, scholars have alternative suggestions where the latter component may be from Malay hari (“day”), according to Wolff (1976), or from Sanskrit हरि (hari, “the sun”), according to Potet (2016). Compare Kapampangan pinanari. See also Malay benang raja. However, Zorc (1979) posits an alternative etymology from Southern Luzon axis *balaghadi (“rainbow”) with elision of /l/. Compare Casiguran Dumagat Agta balaghari and Remontado Agta balaghadi.
