Etymology edit

Likely borrowed from Early Modern Korean 마은 (maun), from earlier Middle Korean 마ᅀᆞᆫ (mazon). The traditional reflex would have preserved a /s/ in the second syllable, creating Jeju *마슨 (*maseun) from a reconstructed Old Korean *마ᄉᆞᆫ (*MASON), provided that it's not a borrowing.^[1] However, this form is completely unattested in the Hangul script. Cognate with Korean 마흔 (maheun).
