#2680 PTB *sywar ⪤ *g/b-sywa-n/t FLOW / POUR / SCATTER / SPILL / SOW / BROADCAST

Strikingly similar patterns of allofamy are shown by the Lahu and Chinese forms: Lh. šêʔ is the direct cognate of OC *sât, while Lh. šē is the direct cognate of OC *sân.

The most ancient coda of this etymon seems to have ended in *‑r.
