Korean[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Sino-Korean word from 點心 (snack). First attested in the 順天金氏墓出土簡札/순천김씨 묘 출토 간찰 ("Letters excavated from the grave of Lady Suncheon Kim"), c. 1585, as Middle Korean 뎜심 (Yale: tyemsim).

Doublet of 딤섬 (dimseom), and cognate with Jeju 징심 (jingsim).

Pronunciation[edit]

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