Momo as written, is a phonetic transcription
Momo as written, is a phonetic transcription of the Tibetan word མོག་མོག (Wylie: mog mog, Tibetan pronunciation . It is possible that this Tibetan word is borrowed from the Chinese term momo a name traditionally used in northwestern Chinese dialects for wheat steamed buns and bread. The word mo (馍) itself means wheat flour food products or mantou , steamed buns. Historically, Chinese names for steamed buns did not distringuish between those with or without fillings until the term baozi emerged during the Song Dynasty between the tenth and thirteenth century.[6] However, in eastern regions of China such as Jiangsu and Shanghai, mantou continues to carry both meanings in modern day. In the Nepal Bhasa language, the word mome means cooking by steaming. The history of momos in Nepal dates back to as early as the fourteenth century.
