Etymology
- lift
- May be cognate with Tibetan འཁྱོག་པ ('khyog pa, “to lift; to bring; to carry”), Tibetan སྐྱ་བ (skya ba, “to carry; to convey”) (Schuessler, 2007). Alternatively, it may be related to 舁 (OC *la, “to lift”) as a *k- prefixed verb (Baxter and Sagart, 1998).
- all, whole, entire
- Sino-Tibetan. Cognate with Proto-Lolo-Burmese *ka (“all”) (STEDT, Schuessler, 2007)
