Etymology[edit]
From 이팝 (ipap, “plain boiled rice”) + 나무 (namu, “tree”), due to the resemblance of the flowers to grains of white rice.
Pronunciation[edit]
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈi(ː)pʰa̠mna̠mu]
- Phonetic hangul: [이(ː)팜나무]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
