dái tai

Etymology
Originally a compound of 🇰🇲, the first element is an alternative form of (see  for the sound change). The current spelling is probably due to the ‹gi›-‹d› merger in most dialects and influence from folk etymology (as if from 🇰🇲, cf. ). Compare Phong Nha dialect ʈɤj³²⁴ which means both "fruit" and "earlobe", while "scrotum, testicles" is ɗaj³²⁴.

This form is originally Northern, then spread to other dialects.

Noun

 * 1) earlobe
