မွေ့
See also: မွေး
Burmese
Etymology
Often taken to be from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *rV-mi(k) (“to sleep, dream”), though the semantic shift required is non-trivial and the phonetic constraints introduced by considering the Burmese as deriving from the root create issues that are difficult to reconcile; see the root page for more.
