Lolo-Burmese*ʔ-lu¹ ‘FRY / STIR-FRY / TOAST’

Notes

This root is universal in Lolo-Burmese, and also appears in two adjacent Qiangic languages influenced by LB, as well as in Naxi.

The WB reflex has -o instead of the expected -u, perhaps reflecting a variant with PLB *-aw. Several Burmish languages have the diphthongal reflex -ai. This suggests that the PLB rhyme is still subject to revision.
