넘치다

Korean edit

Etymology edit

First attested in the Worin cheon'gangjigok (月印千江之曲 / 월인천강지곡), 1449, as Middle Korean 넘〯ᄣᅵ다〮 (Yale: němpstì-tá), from 넘〯 (něm-, “to surpass”) + ᄣᅵ다〮 (pstì-tá, “to overflow”).

Pronunciation edit

(SK Standard/Seoul) IPA^(key): [ˈnɘ(ː)mt͡ɕʰida̠]
Phonetic hangul: [넘(ː)치다]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
