Etymology 1Edit

Kanji in this term
酒
さけ
Grade: 3
kun’yomi

⟨sake2⟩ → /sakəɨ/ → /sake/

From Old Japanese 酒 (⟨sake2⟩),[1][2] from Proto-Japonic *sakay. Cognate with Proto-Ryukyuan *sake (whence Kikai 酒 (sē), Okinawan 酒 (saki), Miyako 酒 (saki), and Yonaguni 酒 (sagi); see the Proto-Ryukyuan entry for further cognates). Attested in the Kojiki of 712 CE, with the ideographic spelling 酒.[2] Additionally, appears in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE and the Man'yōshū of c. 759 CE.[1][2][3][4]

Appears in compounds such as 酒屋 (sakaya, “liquor store”) and 魚, 肴 (sakana, “side dish, e.g. fish and meat; a fish”) (see the derived terms of etymology 2 for more) with the reading saka,[1][2] suggesting a sound shift, most likely via fusion of Old Japanese emphatic nominal particle い (i), likely cognate with Korean nominal particle 이 (i). Compare the sound changes at 神 (kami, “god”, older bound form kamu) and 目 (me, “eye”, older bound form ma).

Various theories exist regarding the ultimate derivation:

  • Might be cognate with 栄え (sakae), the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “stem or continuative form”) of verb 栄える (sakaeru, “to flourish”).[5][6]
  • Might be derived from 避ける (sakeru, “to ward off, to shun”), from the idea that drinking sake would ward off cold diseases.[6]
  • Might be derived from 酒 (kushi, “rice wine, rice vodka, sake”); however, the phonological shifts required are completely unexplainable.[6]
  • The final -ke may be an apophonic form of Old Japanese 酒 (ki1).[6]

PronunciationEdit

NounEdit

酒(さけ) • (sake) 

  1. (impolite) any alcoholic beverage
  2. (especially) Synonym of 日本酒 (nihonshu): sake (Japanese rice wine)
  3. drinking, especially of alcoholic beverages

Etymology 3Edit

Kanji in this term
酒
ささ
Grade: 3
kun’yomi

Originally a 女房詞 (nyōbō kotoba, literally “women's word”) term, possibly derived from reduplication of the first syllable sa from sake. Alternately, may be derived by metaphor from the Chinese-derived euphemism for sake, 竹葉 (chikuyō, literally “bamboo leaves”), as 笹 (sasa) refers to a type of short, leafy bamboo.[9][7]
