บรมราชา

Thai

Etymology

From บรม (bɔɔ-rom, “great; supreme; utmost; etc”) +‎ ราชา (raa-chaa, “king”); ultimately from Sanskrit परमरज (paramaraja, “supreme king”), probably via Old Khmer paramarājā, pūrammarājjā. Compare Modern Khmer បរមរាជា (bârômréachéa).

Historian Sujit Wongthes (สุจิตต์ วงษ์เทศ) suggested that the term was created after the legendary leader Borom.[1]
