Where it comes from

指事漢字 – 山丘形状。早期形式与如同虛 (上古 *kʰa, *qʰa)内的丠相似。对比山。

Wang (1982)认为该词与墟有关，但Schuessler (2007)不认同。

Schuessler认为分别指“土构成的凸起”和“村庄，区域”的“丘”实为同一词，因为人常聚居在较高的地上（见京 (jīng)），因而将该词词源追溯到原始漢藏語 *r/g-wa (“村庄”)，在汉语族中丘 (上古 *kʰʷɯ)与里 (上古 *rɯʔ)和街 (上古 *kreː, *kreː)同源，汉语族外则与米佐語 khua (“村庄”)、哈卡欽語 khûa (“村庄，宇宙”)和緬甸語 ရွာ (rwa，“村庄”)同源（STEDT）。

释义

  1. 自然形成的小土山或者类似小土山的凸起状。 山丘
  2. 坟墓。 丘壟
  3. 将棺材放置在临时的地方待埋葬。
  4. dialectal 土地的分類詞。
  5. obsolete 空，没有物品。
  6. 姓氏 丘成桐
