Etymology: From Proto-Vietic *siː. Cognate with Tho [Cuối Chăm] siː¹, Thavung ซี. The relationship between this root and the root represented by Khmer ដៃ (day), Bahnar ti, Juang iti is uncertain. Sora siˀi is likely a post-Proto-Munda development, as other Munda reflexes show /t/. The "Northern" Austroasiatic branches (Khmuic, Palaungic, Khasian) occasionally show forms with a fricative, affricate, or palatal stop that correspond to *t in the non-Northern branches. Vietic, as a non-"Northern" branch, shows alveolar stop (cf. Khmu [Cuang] caŋ vs. Vietnamese đắng (“bitter”), Mal sam vs. Vietnamese đăm (“right”), possibly Khmu [Cuang] psɨəm vs. Vietnamese đêm (“night”)). Yet here, the "Northern" branches all show /t/ (Khmu [Cuang] tiʔ, Parauk taix, Khasi kti), but Vietic languages uniformly point to *s.

Cognate with Tho [Cuối Chăm] siː¹, Thavung ซี.\nThe relationship between this root and the root represented by Khmer ដៃ (day), Bahnar ti, Juang iti is uncertain. Sora siˀi is likely a post-Proto-Munda development, as other Munda reflexes show /t/.\nThe \"Northern\" Austroasiatic branches (Khmuic, Palaungic, Khasian) occasionally show forms with a fricative, affricate, or palatal stop that correspond to *t in the non-Northern branches. Vietic, as a non-\"Northern\" branch, shows alveolar stop (cf. Khmu [Cuang] caŋ vs. Vietnamese đắng (“bitter”), Mal sam vs. Vietnamese đăm (“right”), possibly Khmu [Cuang] psɨəm vs. Vietnamese đêm (“night”)). Yet here, the \"Northern\" branches all show /t/ (Khmu [Cuang] tiʔ, Parauk taix, Khasi kti), but Vietic languages uniformly point to *s.",
