English meaning : warm, to heat [Tang]

Comments: For *d cf. Xiamen tun², Chaozhou tuŋ², Fuzhou toŋ². There is also a reading Mand. dùn (without a MC prototype) 'to boil, heat'. The word is also written as 炖 (q.v.) - for which Jiyün gives somewhat different MC readings: thon and dón. Since the word is late attested, it is not clear whether one should reconstruct OC *-n or *-r. Viet. d_un is colloquial; regular Sino-Viet. is d_ồn.

There also exist readings: *ʔēnʔ, MC ʔíen, Mand. yǎn (Sch.: 'either something like "nice", or a reduplicative syllable for 婉 q.v.', used in the combination 燕婉 *ʔēnʔ-ʔʷanʔ); *ʔēn, MC ʔien (FQ 烏前), Mand. yān - name of a province. The regular Sino-Vietnamese reflex is yến; the colloquial én is used only in the compound chim én 'swallow'. Viet. also has yên 'calm, pieceful, quiet', obviously borrowed from MC ʔìen - although the tone is not clear.
