    おと

    kun’yomi

    ⟨oto2⟩ → */otə/ → /oto/

    From Old Japanese, from Proto-Japonic *ətə.

    Appears in the late 1400s with the geminate pronunciation /otto/.[5] This reading is very rare, and appears to have fallen out of use.

    Pronunciation Edit

    (rare, obsolete)

    Noun Edit

    音(おと) • (oto) 

    1. a sound
      音(おと)を漏(も)らす
      oto o morasu
      to let out a sound
      音(おと)を立(た)てずに
      oto o tatezu ni
      without raising a sound → noiselessly; silently
    2. when used with a "hear" verb, a rumor or fame (Can we verify(+) this sense?)
    3. news, tidings
    4. a reply, response
    Usage notes Edit

    Oto is used for loud sounds and voices, as opposed to ne (see below).

    Kanji in this term
    音
    と
    Grade: 1
    kun’yomi

    ⟨to2⟩ → */tə/ → /to/

    The shift from oto above, with the initial o being dropped.

    The drop is likely due to haplology with the possessive particle の (no).

    Noun Edit

    音(と) • (to) 

    1. sound; echo; voice
      • c. 759, Minamoto no Shitagō, book 14, poem 3453:
