滹 *qʰaː
乎 *ɢaː
虖 *qʰaː, *qʰʷa, *qʰaː, *qʰʷa
嫭 *ɢaːs

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *qʰaː): semantic 口 (“mouth”) + phonetic 乎 (OC *ɢaː) – to exhale, call, or shout from the mouth.

Etymology

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *ʔaːw (“to shout, cry out”). Cognate with Burmese အော် (au, “to shout, berate”), as well as with the following Sinitic words (STEDT):

  • 嚆 (“to make noise”)
  • 嚎 (“to howl, bawl”)
  • 呴 (OC *qʰoːʔ, *qʰos, “to breathe on, yawn, roar”)
