Etymology
[edit]From Old Japanese, from Proto-Japonic *ika. First cited to the 播磨風土記 (Satsuma Fudoki) of 715.[1]
Ultimate derivation uncertain. Derivations from within Japanese include:
- Related to 厳めしい (ikameshii, “imposing; offputting”)
- Related to 怒る (ikaru, “to move in a rough or wild fashion”)
Outside of Japanese, compare also Hawaiian iʻa, Maori ika (“fish, marine animal in general”), in turn ultimately from Proto-Austronesian *Sikan (“fish”).
The kanji is an orthographic borrowing from Chinese 烏賊／乌贼 (wūzéi, literally “crow + murderer / thief”). According to the 和名類聚抄 (Wamyō Ruijushō) of 938, the spelling was chosen for the way that certain squid would feign death and float motionless on the surface near shore, and when a crow would come to pick up the "dead" squid, the squid would instead grab the crow and drag it underwater.[1]
