===Glyph origin===
{{Han etym}}
{{Han compound|林|凡|ls=psc|c1=s|c2=p|t1=forest}} – lush. Originally a variant form of {{och-l|芃}}.

===Etymology===
As a word for transcribing Indic languages, the reading {{ltc-l|梵|id=2}} probably derives from {{der|zh|pgd|-}} and transcribes the syllables such as ''bram̄(a)'', ''bra(m)m-'', etc. ({{zh-ref|Bailey, 1946}}) in words like {{m|pgd|𐨦𐨿𐨪𐨨𐨸|tr=bram̄a|t={{w|Brahmā (Buddhism)|Brahma}}}}, {{m|pgd|𐨦𐨿𐨪𐨨𐨞|t=a [[brahmin]]}}, and it appears in the classical Chinese lexicon in {{zh-m|*梵天|gloss=Brahma, name of a deity}}, {{zh-m|*梵志|gloss=a person dedicated to religion}}, {{zh-m|*梵行|gloss=good, pure conduct}}, etc. The sense for "Sanskrit" originally refers to its status as a religious language. In modern usage, it is also used to translate various terms in Hinduism, such as [[Brahman]].
