Etymology 1

[edit]
trad. 唵
simp. # 唵

Schuessler (2007) suggests that this is an endoactive derivation from 喑 (OC *qɯːm, “mute; silent”).

Ultimately from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *m-ʔum ~ *mum (“to hold in mouth; to chew; to eat; to kiss”); compare Tibetan ཨུམ (um, “kiss”) (STEDT; Benedict, 1972; Coblin, 1986; Schuessler, 2007).

Readings

(Can we verify(+) this pronunciation?)

  • Go-on: おん (on)←おん (on, historical)←おむ (omu, ancient)
  • Kan-on: あん (an)←あん (an, historical)←あむ (amu, ancient)
  • Kun: ふくむ (fukumu, 唵む)

Etymology

[edit]
Kanji in this term
唵
おん
Hyōgai
on'yomi

*/om/ → /omu/ → /oɴ/

From Middle Chinese 唵 (ʔʌmX), itself a transliteration of Sanskrit ॐ (oṃ).[1][2][3][4]

The goon pronunciation, so likely the initial borrowing.
