Burma

Used in: 3 countries

Origin: Burmese

Borrowed, initially into British English, from Burmese ဗမာ (ba.ma), colloquial form of မြန်မာ (mranma); see Myanmar for more. Like in the word Myanmar, the r was not originally pronounced (and is not present in the Burmese term), it is a vowel-lengthening device used by non-rhotic (British) dialects; compare gorm.
