"མེ་ཏོག" meaning in Tibetan

See མེ་ཏོག in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /*me.tok/, /me˩˨.to˥˨/ [Lhasa], /me˩˧.toʔ˥˩/ [Batang], /me.toχ/ [Bla-Brang], /me.tʰok/ (note: Arik) Forms: me tog [romanization]
Etymology: From earlier མེན་ཏོག (men tog). The reason this word lost the -n in Written Tibetan is unknown. The men in the Old Tibetan form may be compared with འཕྲ་མེན ('phra men, “gilded silver”), and the tog part is from ཐོག (thog, “roof < *tip, end?”) (Hill, 2007).
