Historical forms of the character
Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han)
Small seal script

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *ɡ·raːɡ): phonetic (OC *klaːɡ) + semantic (alcohol; fermented drink)

Etymology[edit]

Unknown. Possibly from a Central Asian language; compare Mongolian айраг (ajrag, fermented milk of mares), Uzbek pishloq (cheese) and Turkish ayran (yoghurt mixed with water). The phonetic similarity between Chinese (OC *ɡ·raːɡ, “milk”), Ancient Greek γάλα (gála, milk) and Latin lac (milk), from Proto-Indo-European *ǵlákts (milk) is worth noting (Schuessler, 2007).
