Where it comes from

同聲符字 (古) (鄭張尚芳 (2003))

形聲漢字（上古 *kaːʔ）：意符牛 + 聲符古 (上古 *kaːʔ) 。

Wang (1982)認為此詞和羖 (上古 *klaːʔ, “（黑色）公羊”)、豭 (上古 *kraː, “公豬”)相關。

而Schuessler (2007)則認為此詞源於南亞語系，和巴拿語支的格賀語 klaw、遮羅語 klo:、布羅斯丁語 klaw的「雄性」同源（都來自原始巴拿語 *kləw < 原始孟-高棉語 *t₁l(ə)w(ʔ) (“雄性”)），同時和高棉語 ខ្លោះ (khlɑh，“雄性、陽剛”)、កំលោះ (kɑmlŭəh，“少年”)同源。

釋義

牯牛（閹割過的公牛）；公牛牛之牡者曰牯曰特。
Hakka, Teochew 雄性（動物）狗牯
