Glyph origin

Ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意) and phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *qɯŋ): phonetic (OC *qɯŋ, eagle; hawk) + semantic (bird).

Etymology

Cognate with Tibetan གླག (glag, eagle; vulture), Burmese လင်းတ (lang:ta., vulture), Jingpho lang (bird of the falcon family), etc. (Benedict, 1972; STEDT); and possibly from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *qə-lə(ŋ~k) (bird of prey), which in turn likely is related to Proto-Austroasiatic *klaːŋ (eagle, hawk) > Proto-Bahnaric *klaːŋ (hawk), Proto-Palaungic *klaːŋ (kite), Mon လနေၚ် (kite), Khmer ខ្លែង (khlaeng, kite), etc.. Compare also Proto-Hmong-Mien *qlaŋX (eagle, hawk).

This word agrees better with Tibetan སྐྱིང་སེར (skying ser, eagle; vulture) if the Old Chinese is reconstructed as *s-ki̯əŋ (Benedict, 1990; Schuessler, 2007); Benedict (1976) reconstructs Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-kiŋ for this, which Benedict (1990) suggests is the native Sino-Tibetan root.
