jukujikun

/nawi/ → */nawʲi//naji//nai/

From Old Japanese. First cited to 720 in the Nihon Shoki.[1]

Apparently this term semantically first referred to the ground, and was used most in constructions like "the ground shakes". Over time, this shifted via metonymy to refer to the shaking itself.[1]

May be a compound of () (na, ground, possibly an apophonic form of ni, "earth, soil") + () (i, being, the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, stem or continuative form) of () (iru, to be, in a location; in modern Japanese, used of animate objects)).[1][2]

The kanji spelling is jukujikun (熟字訓).
