Phono-semantic compound (形聲けいせい／形声けいせい, OC *njɯm, *njɯms) : semantic 亻 (“person”) + phonetic 壬みずのえ (OC *l̥ʰeːŋʔ, *njɯm) – to carry on a shoulder pole.

Note that its phonetic part 壬みずのえ (OC *njɯm) may be the graphical representation of 任にん, depicting a shoulder pole rotated by 90 degrees.

Etymology

[edit]

Cognate with 妊にん (OC *njɯms, “pregnant”) and Tibetan སྣོམ་པ (snom pa, “to take; seize; hold”). May also be cognate with Proto-Kam-Sui *ȵam¹ (“to hold”) and Old Khmer nāṃ (“to carry”) (Schuessler, 2007).
