Where this word comes from

Affixation of tulad + -an. Inherited from Malay tauladan, teladan, from Classical Malay تلادن , تولادن, from Proto-Malayic *tulad (“example, model”), from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *tulad (“example, model”). Cognate with Tagalog tulad. The tauladan spelling might come from the mistransliteration of تُولَادَن (tūlādan) as تَولَادَن (tawlādan) in Jawi Script, while the teladan spelling is most likely inherited directly from تلادن (talādan, tulādan) spelling.
