Built from
Borrowed from Sanskrit छाया (chāyā, “shadow; reflection”), possibly via Old Khmer chāya (“shadow; reflection; looking-glass”). Cognate with Modern Khmer ឆាយ (chaay). Borrowed from Khmer ឆាយ (chaay, “beautiful”) (though TDP implicitly groups the terms under this section with the "screen" sense of Etymology 1). Borrowed from Khmer ឆាយ (chaay, “to level; to flatten”).
