稷

Han character

 * 1) god of cereals
 * 2) minister of agriculture

Etymology
considers it a cognate of 🇨🇬 as part of the hypothetical Sino-Tibetan-Austronesian language family. Blust (2013: 713), however, finds this comparison unconvincing because of the apparently arbitrary and phonetically unjustified fluctuation between Old Chinese *-k and Proto-Austronesian *-ŋ.

Cognates of this word are found in a handful of Tibeto-Burman languages, such as 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬. This etymon should be kept separated from, and. The first two may belong to 🇨🇬, while the last one may be related to 🇨🇬, along with 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬.
