See མཐེ་བོ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /*mtʰe.bo/, /tʰe˥˥.poˑ/ [Lhasa] Forms: mthe bo [romanization]
Etymology: Hill (2014, 2019) compares the first syllable to Tibetan ཆེ (che, “big”), Burmese တယ် (tai, “very”), as well as 多 (OC *ʔl'aːl, “many, much”). STEDT derives this from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *ta-j (“big”), whose Chinese comparandum is 大 (OC *daːds, “large”) instead; Baxter (1992) has also compared it to this etymon.
