SPRINKLE / SPRAY

Notes

This etymon is apparently distinct from #5695 PTB *pr(y/w)ak SPRINKLE. An *m- prefix is attested in Kaman [Miju] mphlɑt³⁵, while an *s- prefix is attested in Daofu sphro. The Burmish and Dulong forms support the variant with a nasal final. (This etymology is due to Liberty Lidz.)
