Often considered a substrate word. Compare (Deng, 1994):
- Proto-Hmong-Mien *təjH (“to kill”) ~ Proto-Hmong-Mien *dəjH (“to die”)
- White Hmong tua (“to kill”)
- White Hmong tuag (“to die”)
- Proto-Austronesian *pa-aCay (“to kill”) ~ Proto-Austronesian *ma-aCay (“to die”)
- Proto-Tai *p.taːjᴬ (“to die”)
Norman (1979) suggests that this derives from 治 (MC ɖɨ, “to regulate; to clean (fish)”) instead. This usage is still used in some Mandarin dialects (usually meaning “to clean (fish)”) and Hakka chhṳ̀ (“to slaughter (livestock)”), often written as 㓾.
Alternatively, some have suggested that 夷 (MC jiɪ, “to be level; to pacify; to kill”) is the original character.
