kun'yomi
Kanji in this term
音
おっと
Grade: 1
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) or 音(おっと) • (oto or otto) 

  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

Derived terms
[edit]

Etymology 3

[edit]

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

⟨to2⟩ → */tə/ → /to/

The shift from oto, 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, Man’yōshū, book 14, poem 3453:
      , text here
      可是能(かぜの)等(と)能(の)登抱吉和伎母賀(とほきわぎもが)吉西斯伎奴(きせしきぬ)多母登乃久太利(たもとのくだり)麻欲比伎尓家利(まよひきにけり) [Man'yōgana]

Etymology 4

[edit]

Kanji in this term
音
ね
Grade: 1
kun'yomi
Alternative spelling
哭

⟨ne2⟩ → */nəɨ/ → /ne/

From Old Japanese. First attested in the Kojiki of 712, with the phonetic spelling 泥.[8]

The original meaning appears to have been "a sound or cry, as made by an insect, bird, or beast".[8] The verb for making such a sound is 鳴く (naku, “to make a sound; to cry out”), cognate with 泣く (naku, “to cry, to weep”). It remains unclear if this noun ne ("sound") might be related to the verb naku ("to make a sound").

Pronunciation

[edit]

Noun

[edit]

音(ね) • (ne) 

  1. [from late 900s] a sound, voice
  2. [from 712] the cry of an animal
Usage notes
[edit]

Ne is used for relatively soft sounds and voices that appeals to human emotions, as opposed to the oto reading.

Derived terms
[edit]

Etymology 5

[edit]

Kanji in this term
音
いん
Grade: 1
kan'on

From Middle Chinese 音 (MC 'im).

The kan'on pronunciation, so likely a later borrowing.

Pronunciation

[edit]

Affix

      音(いん)信(しん) ― inshin ― (also onshin) message, news
