Etymology
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *ɡɯːm): phonetic 今 (OC *krɯm) + semantic 口 (“mouth”). From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *mV-kəm (“to put into mouth; to seize with mouth”) (STEDT, under *gam); cognate with Tibetan འགམ་པ ('gam pa, “to put into the mouth”), Proto-Tani *g(j)am (“bite”). Within Chinese, cognate with 函 (OC *ɡuːm, *ɡruːm, “to contain; box; letter”) (Schuessler, 2007). 銜 (OC *ɡraːm, “to carry in the mouth; horse's bit”) is probably related. Bodman (1980) considers 頷 (OC *ɡɯːm, *ɡɯːmʔ) to be the endoactive of 含 (OC *ɡɯːm, “to hold in the mouth”), literally “the thing that holds something in the mouth”.
