Korean[edit]

Etymology[edit]

First attested in the Eonhae duchang jibyo (諺解痘瘡集要 / 언해두창집요), 1608, as Early Modern Korean 어히다 (Yale: ehi-ta), causative of Middle Korean 엏다〮 (Yale: èh-tá, “to be cut”).

Pronunciation[edit]

  • (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈe̞(ː)da̠]
  • Phonetic hangul: [(ː)]
    • Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
