First attested in the Gugeupganibang eonhae (救急簡易方諺解 / 구급간이방언해), 1489, as Middle Korean 믌〮고기〮 (Yale: múl-s kwòkí).
물 (mul, “water”) + ㅅ (-s-, genitive interfix; omitted from the spelling, but this causes the tense phonation of the following consonant) + 고기 (gogi, “fish”).
Pronunciation[edit]
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [muɭk͈o̞ɡi]
