Adverb

IPA: [len˧˧] [Hà-Nội], [len˧˧] [Huế], [ləːn˧˧] (note: Saigon) Audio: LL-Q9199 (vie)-Penn Zero MSSJ-lên.wav , LL-Q9199 (vie)-Jessica Nguyen (Pamputt)-lên.wav Forms: [CJK], [CJK], 𨑗 [CJK], 𨕭 [CJK], 𨖲 [CJK], 𫧧 [CJK], 𬨠 [CJK], 𬨺 [CJK]
Etymology: From Proto-Vietic *leːɲ, from Proto-Mon-Khmer *luŋ ~ *luəŋ ~ *ləŋ (“above, on”) (reconstruction in Shorto, 2006); related to trên. Cognate with Muong liênh, Chut [Rục] liːŋ¹, Samre liɲ ("to go up; on"), Khmer ឡើង (laəng) and Semelai leŋ ("upwards, upstream"). Munda comparanda includes Juang aliŋ-ta ("above, from above, on; up, upon") and Korku liɲ ("up, above"). Note that the reconstruction by Ferlus (2007) is inaccurate at Proto-Vietic level. The fronting of final *-ŋ to *-ɲ after front vowels only occured at Common Viet-Muong stage, not Proto-Vietic proper, hence non-Viet-Muong languages (like Rục) keep final *-ŋ intact. The reconstruction *leːɲ is thus accurate for the Common Viet-Muong stage, but the Proto-Vietic form can be mended to *leːŋ instead. For some other examples of Common Viet-Muong fronting of *-ŋ after front vowels, compare Viet. đến vs. Cuối Chăm teːŋ³, Viet. cù lần vs. Cuối Chăm kuː¹ liŋ¹, Viet. chân vs. Rục ciːŋ².

  "etymology_text": "From Proto-Vietic *leːɲ, from Proto-Mon-Khmer *luŋ ~ *luəŋ ~ *ləŋ (“above, on”) (reconstruction in Shorto, 2006); related to trên. Cognate with Muong liênh, Chut [Rục] liːŋ¹, Samre liɲ (\"to go up; on\"), Khmer ឡើង (laəng) and Semelai leŋ (\"upwards, upstream\"). Munda comparanda includes Juang aliŋ-ta (\"above, from above, on; up, upon\") and Korku liɲ (\"up, above\").\nNote that the reconstruction by Ferlus (2007) is inaccurate at Proto-Vietic level. The fronting of final *-ŋ to *-ɲ after front vowels only occured at Common Viet-Muong stage, not Proto-Vietic proper, hence non-Viet-Muong languages (like Rục) keep final *-ŋ intact. The reconstruction *leːɲ is thus accurate for the Common Viet-Muong stage, but the Proto-Vietic form can be mended to *leːŋ instead.\nFor some other examples of Common Viet-Muong fronting of *-ŋ after front vowels, compare Viet. đến vs. Cuối Chăm teːŋ³, Viet. cù lần vs. Cuối Chăm kuː¹ liŋ¹, Viet. chân vs. Rục ciːŋ².",
