From an unattested stem of [hu] + [hu].[1][2] The stem was probably [hu],
related to obsolete [hu] and thus [hu]. It may have had at least a variant
with velar 吴语: Close back unrounded vowel, giving rise to the forms [hu] and
[hu], as reflected by their back-vowel suffixes.[3]
*** Pronunciation
- [hu-IPA]
- [hu]
- [hu]
*** Verb
[hu-verb]
1. [hu] to scatter , sprinkle [to cause a substance to fall in fine drops (for a liquid substance) or small pieces (for a solid substance)]
