*wut

BRICK
Dravidian

Notes

This etymon is evidently a borrowing into TB, perhaps ultimately from a Dravidian source (Tamil ōṭu ‘roofing tile, potsherd, brick’ [Turner 1966: 77]).

Cf. also Proto-Mon-Khmer *ʔit ‘brick’ (Shorto 2006:R:940.A).

The Jingpho, Rawang, and Karen forms are ultimately loans from Burmese.
