This word was borrowed at a stage when the Sinitic word still retained the preinitial, thus causing lenition: > Middle Vietnamese   > modern. The Sino-Vietnamese reading, on the other hand, derived from Middle Chinese when the onset already simplified and resulted in a stop. The North Central đao, although formally identical to the more recent Sino-Vietnamese reading, belongs to the same stratum as dao, as indicated by the meaning "knife", due to the fact that these dialects did not undergo lenition to as large an extent.

Noun

 * 1) knife
