漆 (urushi): a traditional red lacquerware serving set.
Kanji in this term
漆
うるし
Grade: S
kun’yomi

Appears to be derived from Old Japanese root uru, as in terms such as classical Japanese 潤う (urufu) → modern 潤う (uruou, “to be moist”), うるうる (uruuru, “wetly, moistly”, adverb). Probably from the way that a lacquered surface glistens as if wet.

Pronunciation edit

Noun edit

  1. lacquer, varnish
  2. lacquer tree (Toxicodendron vernicifluum)
