鳳梨 (hōri): two pineapple fruits growing on the pineapple plant.

ほう Jinmeiyō	り Grade: 4
kan’on	on’yomi

Etymology edit

From written Chinese 鳳梨 (fènglí).^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]

First attested in Japanese in 1876.^[1] Apparently the fruit was first cultivated in Japan in 1830, with records from 1845 of the Dutch importing pineapples via Nagasaki.^[5]

The reading is the expected Japanese on'yomi (kan'on) for the Chinese spelling. Compare the modern Cantonese reading fung⁶ lei⁴, or Min Nan hōng-lâi.

(Tokyo) ほーり [hóꜜòrì] (Atamadaka – [1])^[4]
IPA^(key): [ho̞ːɾʲi]

Noun edit

鳳(ほう)梨(り) • (hōri)

[from 1876] (archaic) pineapple, both the fruit and the plant

Usage notes edit
