Chinese comparandum

飢 OC (*ki̯ɛr), (not in GSR #602) ‘hungry, famine’; Schuessler 2007:292 *kri; B & S 2011: *Cə.k‹r›əj {Cə.k‹r›ə[j]}; Mand. jī.
饑 OC *ki̯ər, GSR #547k ‘famine’; Schuessler 2007:292 *kəi; B & S 2011: *kəj {kə[j]}; Mand. jī.
饉 OC *g’i̯ɛn, GSR #480r-s ‘famine’; Schuessler 2007:316 *gəns; B & S 2011: *ɡrər-s {[ɡ]rə[r]-s}; Mand. jìn.

Comment: Note that the original graph 饑 jī is usually written 飢 jī in Simplified Chinese script; however, Schuessler (2007:292) cautions that the graphs 飢 and 饑 represent phonologically distinct etyma in OC.
