Korean[edit]

Etymology 1[edit]

Korean Wikipedia has an article on:
Wikipedia ko

First attested in the Gugeupganibang eonhae (救急簡易方諺解 / 구급간이방언해), 1489, as Middle Korean 박〮 (Yale: pák).

However, the twelfth-century history Samguk sagi's explanation of the surname 박(朴) (bak), given below, reveals that the word was used at least as early as 1145, and (if the Sagi's account is to be believed) as early as the first century B.C.E.

Etymology 2[edit]

Modern Korean reading of Hanja .

According to the Samguk sagi, a history written in 1145, the surname was chosen because the legendary founder of the lineage was born from an egg as big as a calabash. Hence the word is the same as "calabash" above.[1] However, some modern scholars have instead seen a connection to ᄇᆞᆰ (Yale: pòlk-, “to be bright”), whence modern 밝다 (bakda).
