난추니
Korean
editEtymology
editFirst attested in the Hunmong jahoe (訓蒙字會 / 훈몽자회), 1527, as Middle Korean 나친〮 (Yale: nàchín), from Middle Mongol ᠨᠠᠴᠢᠨ (način, “falcon”), whence Mongolian начин (način); ultimately from an unknown Central Asiatic source. Compare also Common Turkic *lāčïn (“falcon”) along with its descendants, such as Azerbaijani laçın, Turkmen laçyn and Kazakh лашын (laşyn), and Manchu ᠨᠠᠴᡳᠨ (nacin, “falcon”).
Pronunciation
edit- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈna̠(ː)ɲt͡ɕʰuni]
- Phonetic hangul: [난(ː)추니]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
