#2378 PTB *s-klawŋ GUARD / TEND CATTLE / GRAZE / BE AT LEISURE |
We reconstruct this interesting root with medial *‑l‑ on the basis of the PKC form, even though this medial does not appear overtly elsewhere in TB. Written Tibetan lacks an skl cluster, so that medial ‑y‑ was substituted for it. Written Burmese has a doublet, kyôŋ ‘feed, tend cattle’ and ə‑coŋʼ ‘watchman, guard’, with the latter apparently a later development. This etymon is thus a good example of a proto-contrast better preserved in a particular subgroup than in the family as a whole.
This root was formerly reconstructed as *s‑gyoŋ (HPTB:294).
