trad. 魄 simp. # 魄

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan; cognate with Tibetan བླ (bla) and Burmese လိပ်ပြာ (lippra).

Related to 白 (OC *braːɡ, “white”) (Schuessler, 2007).

“illuminated part of the moon” Wang (1923) in 《生霸死霸考》 supports the definition by examining textual traditions of the Chinese classics and archaeological evidences from the Western Zhou era (c. 11th-8th centuries BCE). Bronze script texts from the era commonly use the form 霸 (OC *praːɡs). “dark part of the moon” Chiefly found in some old dictionaries based on another textual tradition, traced by Wang (1923) to the calendrical innovations of Liu Xin and later Confucian “pseudepigraphy”.
