From Old Japanese, from Proto-Japonic *paka. First attested in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE.[1]

Korean

Etymology 1

edit

Irregularly shifted from Middle Chinese 墓 (MC muH), perhaps due to confusion with the hanja 廟 (myo, “temple”).

Pronunciation

edit
  • (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [mjo(ː)]
  • Phonetic hangul: [묘(ː)]
    • Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.

Hanja

Korean Wikisource has texts containing the hanja:

墓 (eumhun 무덤 묘 (mudeom myo))

  1. hanja form? of 묘 (“grave; tomb”) [noun]
  2. hanja form? of 묘 (“grave; tomb”) [affix]

Etymology 2

Presumably the original form.

Pronunciation

Hanja

edit

墓 (eumhun 무덤 모 (mudeom mo))

  1. (Yukjin, Russia) hanja form? of 모 (“grave; tomb”) [noun]
Usage notes
edit
  • Yukjin speakers still use the orthodox pronunciation in compounds, e.g. 묘디(墓地) (myodi) for 묘지(墓地) (myoji).
  • This form appears to have historically been more common throughout the peninsula, as even southern dialects still sporadically have the derived term 못자리 (motjari, “gravesite”).
