Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *zə; cognate with Proto-Kukish *ca, Mru caŋ (to do; to make), and Tibetan མཛད (mdzad, to do; to act), མཛོད (mdzod), possibly also related to བཟོ (bzo, work, labour) (Schuessler, 2007). Schuessler disputes Löffler's (1966) proposed connection of these cognates to (OC *ʔsaːɡs, *ʔsaːɡs, *ʔsaːɡ, “to do, work, make”) due to phonological difficulties.

Unger (1984) posits a possible relationship with Tibetan རྫི་པོ (rdzi po, herdsman).
