鎌切 |
Apparently from 鎌切 (kamakiri, “mantis”), possibly from the way the pectoral fins are smooth on the upper edge and webbed with sharp rays along the lower edge, somewhat similar to a mantis's forelegs, or from the way the fish lies in wait to grab prey, similar to a mantis.
The kanji are jukujikun (熟字訓), from Chinese 杜父魚/杜父鱼 (dùfùyú).
Pronunciation
editNoun
edit- a fourspine sculpin (species Cottus kazika); very similar to the kajika (see below), but larger
Usage notes
editThe synonym 鮎掛 (ayukake) is much more commonly used, to avoid confusion between the fish and the insect senses of the term kamakiri.
Note that the species name Cottus kazika does not refer to the kajika (see below), but rather to the kamakiri or ayukake.
Synonyms
edit- 鮎掛 (ayukake) (more common)
- 杜父魚 (kakubutsu) (rare; see below)

Alternative spellings |

鰍 (more common) 鮖 |
Possibly from 河鹿 (kajika, literally “river deer”), the short name for 河鹿蛙 (kajika-gaeru, “Japanese river frog”), from the way the fish can resemble a young frog or tadpole as it sits on the bottom.
Alternatively, possibly derived from the same roots as 河鹿 (kajika) in reference to the fish's use as food, ultimately as a compound of 河 (kawa, “river”) + 鹿 (shika, “deer”): /kawa ɕika/ → /kad͡ʑika/.
The kanji are jukujikun (熟字訓), from Chinese 杜父魚/杜父鱼 (dùfùyú).
Pronunciation
editNoun
edit- a Japanese fluvial sculpin (species Cottus pollux); very similar to the kamakiri (see above), but smaller
