Etymology

"to commit to one's charge" (Lunyu), "to entrust, communicate" (Liji), > "send (a letter)": Possibly Sino-Tibetan Category:Chinese terms derived from Sino-Tibetan languages#宀08. Compare Burmese ခိုက် (hkuik, “bring”)Category:Burmese terms with non-redundant manual transliterations#寄 & Mizo khai (“to give, to present”)

"translator, interpreter" > "an alternate name used for the Dongyi tribes during the Ming Dynasty": Behr (2004) proposes that 寄 (OC *krals) and its variant 羈 (OC *kral) (used by Gao You when annotating Lüshi Chunqiu) both transcribed an underlying foreign word.
