陰唇(いんしん) (inshin, “labia”)

Etymology edit

Kanji in this term
唇
くちびる Grade: S
kun’yomi

The くち (kuchi) element is 口 (“mouth”); several dictionaries, such as Kōjien^[1] gloss the meaning of this overall term as 口縁 (kuchiberi), consisting of 口 (kuchi, “mouth”) +‎ 縁 (heri, “edge”). Therefore the current pronunciation kuchibiru may be a shift from an earlier kuchiberi. The h of heri now becomes a b in an instance of rendaku, but may not have in older Japanese.

(This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.)

Pronunciation edit

(Tokyo) くちびる [kùchíbírú] (Heiban – [0])^[2]^[3]
IPA^(key): [kɯ̟̊ᵝt͡ɕibʲiɾɯ̟ᵝ]

- 794, Shin'yaku Kegonkyō Ongi Shiki:
