Chinese
Glyph origin
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *ɡʷraːn): semantic 玉 (“jade”) + phonetic 睘 (OC *ɡʷeŋ).
Etymology 1
Note similarities to Proto-Tibeto-Burman *hwaŋ (“to encircle; circular, fence”), whence Burmese ဝင်း (wang:, “enclosure, compound”). See also Thai แหวน (wɛ̌ɛn, “ring”), which may derive from a borrowing from the Middle Chinese form.
