Glyph origin[edit]

Characters in the same phonetic series (遣) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
遣 *kʰenʔ, *kʰens
繾 *kʰenʔ, *kʰens
譴 *kʰens

Originally 𠳋, an ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) in the oracle bone script: two 又 (“hand”) in a configuration of commanding + 𠂤 (“army”) – “to send; to dispatch”.

The 辵 component was later added in some bronze inscriptions, which is retained in the modern glyph.

Old Korean[edit]

Suffix[edit]

遣 (*-kwo)

  1. verbal connective suffix, largely equivalent to English "and; and then"
    • c. 750, 月明師 (Wolmyeongsa), “祭亡妹歌 (Jemangmae-ga)”, in 三國遺事 (Samguk Yusa):
      生死路隱此矣有阿米次肹伊遣吾隱去內如辭叱都毛如云遣去內尼叱古
      As life and death's paths are present here, my way is blocked [or "I am in fear" or "I hesitate"]. And you have not finished saying the words "I depart", and you are [still] departing?

Reconstruction notes[edit]

Generally reconstructed as *-kwo, because the Old Korean suffix corresponds exactly to the Middle (and Modern) Korean verbal suffix 고 (go) and because fifteenth-century Idu texts use 遣 to transcribe what by this point is clearly Middle Korean 고 (Yale: kwo). However, it is difficult to explain what sound shifts could have produced Middle Korean [ko] out of an Old Korean morpheme whose phonetic value was presumably similar to the character 遣 (Old Chinese *[k]ʰe[n]ʔ, Middle Chinese *kʰiᴇn).

Descendants[edit]

  • Middle Korean: 고 (kwo, verbal connective suffix)
    • Korean: 고 (go, verbal connective suffix)
