林檎 (ringo)

/rimʉɡomʉ/ → /riŋɡõː/ → /riŋɡo/

From Middle Chinese 林檎 (MC lim gim).

Originally referred to the Chinese pearleaf crabapple (Malus asiatica) imported from China, it has expanded to mean any apple of the Malus genus.

First cited in 918 in the 本草和名 (Honzō Wamyō, “Japanese names for medicinal plants”).[1]

Pronunciation edit

Noun edit

林(りん)檎(ご) or 林檎(リンゴ) • (ringo) 

  1. [from 918] an apple
    りんごの鮮(せん)度(ど)の見(み)分(わ)け方(かた)
    ringo no sendo no miwake-kata
    how to tell whether an apple is fresh
  2. (slang) the company Apple Inc. or its products
    よく林(りん)檎(ご)の審(しん)査(さ)通(とお)ったなこれ。
    Yoku ringo no shinsa tōtta na kore.

Usage notes edit

Can refer to either the fruit or the tree. As with many terms that name organisms, this term is often spelled in katakana, especially in biological contexts (where katakana is customary), as リンゴ.

林 檎
りん > りゅう

Jinmeiyō
irregular

/rimʉɡomʉ/ → /riũɡoũ/ → /rʲuːɡoː/

A variant shift from Middle Chinese 林檎 (MC lim gim). The shift in reading was due to an orthographic inconsistency in spelling the nasalized mora marked as ん (n) in modern Japanese.[1] In ancient texts, this kana did not yet exist, and the sound was often spelled using the む (mu) kana, which in certain terms shifted to, and may have been spelled as, う (u).

Appears in the 和名類聚抄 (Wamyō Ruijushō) of c. 938 CE.[1]

Pronunciation edit

  • IPA(key): [ɾʲɨᵝːɡo̞ː]

Noun edit

林(りゅう)檎(ごう) • (ryūgō) ←りうごう (riugou)?

  1. [938–???] (rare, obsolete) an apple
