trad. 葉 simp. 叶*

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *hljeb, *leb): semantic 艸 + phonetic 枼 (“leaf”). 枼 is the original pictogram for this word; 艸 was added to differentiate.[1]

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *lap (“leaf”). Cognate with Tibetan ལོ་མ (lo ma, “leaf”), Western Tibetan ལོབ་མ (lob ma, “leaf”), Jingpho lap (“leaf”). Related to 世 (OC *hljebs, “world”).

This is part of the word family *lVp meaning “flat”, represented by the phonetic component 枼 (OC *leb). Compare also 茶 (OC *rlaː, “tea < *leaf”).

Kanji in this term 葉はGrade: 3 kun’yomi

/pa/ → /ɸa/ → /ha/

From Old Japanese,[1] from Proto-Japonic *pa.

Probably cognate with Old Japanese verb 生(は)ゆ (hayu, “to sprout, to grow”) → modern 生(は)える (haeru), and with 羽(は) (ha, “feather; wing”).

Suggested in some sources as possibly cognate with 歯(は) (ha, “tooth”), from the way that both sprout and then later fall,[2] and with 刃(は) (ha, “blade”) from similarities in shape (cf. English blade). However, the pitch accent patterns are different; 葉 and 羽 are both unaccented, while 歯 and 刃 are both accented. This may reflect two disparate *pa roots in the ancient language.

First attested in the Kojiki of 712 CE with the phonetic spelling 波.[1]

Cognate with Okinawan 葉 (fā).
