kwv in White Hmong

IPA: /kɨ˧˦/ [Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: From Proto-Hmong-Mien *ku̯eiX (“younger brother”). Possibly related to Chinese 哥 (gē, “older brother”), though the details are unclear, particularly why the age relationships between the Hmong-Mien terms (kwv and tij) are opposite to those of Sinitic (弟 (dì) and 哥 (gē)).
