Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *praː) : semantic 豕 (“pig; boar”) + phonetic 巴 (OC *praː).

Possibly from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *pʷak (“pig”); cognate with Burmese ဝက် (wak), Tibetan ཕག (phag) (Benedict, 1972; STEDT).

However, Schuessler (2007) points out phonological mismatches:

A medial *-r- in Old Chinese should correspond to a pre-initial in Tibeto-Burman, but this is not present.
A final *-k is present in Tibeto-Burman yet absent in Old Chinese (uncommon correspondence).

He instead considers Waic *bras as a better match, both phonologically and semantically.
