Etymology 2

edit

“That”. Schuessler (2007) connects this with Proto-Loloish *m-ba (“on the other side”), Tibetan (pha, beyond, farther on, onward). Maybe related to (OC *pralʔ, “that”). Pulleyblank (1995) relates the introductory particle sense with (OC *bom).

In the sense "is it not?", probably a contraction of (OC *pɯ, *pɯʔ, *pɯ') and (OC *ɢaː) (Pulleyblank, 1995, p. 145).
