Glyph origin

[edit]
Historical forms of the character まん
Shang Western Zhou Warring States Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Oracle bone script Bronze inscriptions Chu slip and silk script Small seal script Transcribed ancient scripts

Pictogram (象形しょうけい) – scorpion. This character's original meaning has been lost, and the derivative (OC *m̥ʰraːds) refers to the original word.

Etymology

[edit]
“scorpion”
See (OC *m̥ʰraːds).
“religious dance; sorcery”
Perhaps from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-man (medicine). Compare Tibetan སྨན (sman, medicine; she-demons worshipped by common folk), Burmese မန်း (man:, utter mystic words to heal or ward off evil).
myriad; ten thousand”
Schuessler (2007) considers the etymology of this sense Sino-Tibetan and compares it with Tibetan འབུམ ('bum, hundred thousand; complete; entire; multifarious). Similar words are found in branches of Turkic, Mongolic, Tungusic, Korean, and Tocharian; here they are treated as very old loanwords from Chinese, per Pulleyblank (apud Clauson, 1972), Beckwith (2009), Adams (2013) and Tremblay (2005).

Pronunciation

[edit]

Note:
  • bhuêng7 - Chaozhou;
  • bhuang7 - Shantou.
Note:
  • 3me - colloquial (only in まん);
  • 3ve - literary ("ten thousand", etc.).
