Phono-semantic compound (形聲けいせい／形声けいせい, OC *ɡʷaːŋ) : semantic 火ひ (“fire”) + phonetic 皇すめらぎ (OC *ɡʷaːŋ).

Etymology

Probably Sino-Tibetan; compare Burmese လွင် (lwang, “vivid”) (Schuessler, 2007).

皇すめらぎ (OC *ɡʷaːŋ, “royal”) may be the same word (ibid.).

It may be related to 光ひかり (OC *kʷaːŋ, *kʷaːŋs, “light; bright”) (Wang, 1982; Schuessler, 2007). Wang (1982) additionally relates it to 景けい (OC *kraŋʔ, “bright; sunlight”), 鏡かがみ (OC *kraŋs, “mirror”), 晃あきら (OC *ɡʷaːŋʔ, “bright”), 曠 (OC *kʰʷaːŋs, “bright”).
