Old Japanese edit

Etymology 1 edit

Unknown. One theory suggests a contraction of 在処 (ari-ka, “whereabouts”), derived from 有り (ari, “to exist”). Might be related to 石村 (Ipare), possibly from 岩 (ipa, “rock”) + 村 (are).[1]

村 (*are) (kana あれ)

  1. a village
Derived terms edit

Etymology 2 edit

No phonographic attestations exist. This reading is glossed to 村邑 in the Atsuda manuscript of the Nihon Shoki.

According to one theory, possibly borrowed from some dialect of Old Korean.[2] Compare Goguryeo 忽 (*xol, *kol, *kolo, *koro, “fortress”).

村 (*pure) (kana ふれ)

  1. a village
    • 720, Nihon Shoki, (Emperor Keitai, eighth year of reign (c. 515 CE), third month in spring):
      駈-略レ子-女、剥-掠レ村-邑。
      [Banpa] took [items] from the children, and stole from the village.

Etymology 3 edit

Possibly derived from Old Korean 須祇 (*suki).[3]

Noun edit

村 (suki1) (kana スキ)

  1. (in ancient Korean contexts) a village
    • 720, Nihon Shoki, (Empress Jingū, forty-ninth year of reign (c. 250 CE), third month in spring):

      The father-and-son kings of Baekje met both Aredawakë and Mongnakunja (Mokurakonsi) at Uiryu-sugi (Oru-suki) [now called Churyu-sugi (Turu-suki)]; [both sides were] glad to see each other, and exchanged heartfelt thanks as they were sent off.
