Composition

su (structure/order) + ha (heat/thermal state) + mu (artifact/device). Head-final: mu (artifact) is head; su-ha (structured heat transfer) specifies the type. Right-branching: su modifies [ha-mu] = structure of the heat-device = the structured heat-conducting device = pan.

Definition

cooking pan; stovetop cooking surface; any open flat or concave heat-conducting vessel used for direct stovetop cooking. The structured (su) heat-transferring (ha) artifact (mu) = the device whose structural arrangement conducts and distributes heat directly to food materials. Distinct from ko-ha-mu (W214: oven = containment- heat-device, enclosed) by the su vs ko distinction: su = open structured arrangement; ko = enclosed containment. A pan sits open on a heat source; an oven encloses food in a heated enclosure. Covers frying pan, skillet, saucepan (when used for direct heat transfer).

Notes

Established alongside its complement ko-ha-mu (W214: oven). The su/ko contrast is the structural key: ko = containment/enclosure (food inside a thermally sealed space); su = structure/arrangement (food on an open, structured conducting surface). Spatial locative: pa-su-ha-mu = at/on the pan, paralleling pa-ko-mu (vessel) and pa-ko-ha-mu (oven). First attested EGG-001 (S721).
