From Middle Chinese 全 (dzjwen, “complete, whole”).

Pronunciation

[edit]

Prefix

[edit]

全(うつ) • (utsu-) 

  1. completely, totally, in its entirety

Etymology 3

[edit]

From the resemblance of the character written on the reverse side of a silver general, originally a cursive form of 金 (kin, “gold”), to a different character, namely 全.

Reinterpreted as 銀 (gin, “silver”) with strokes removed, and similar workarounds would be used to create 圭 for 成桂 (narikei, “promoted knight”), and 杏 for 成香 (narikyō, “promoted lance”).

For pronunciation and definitions of 全 – see the following entry.
【成銀なりぎん】
[noun] (shogi) a promoted silver general piece, with movement the same as a 金将 (kinshō, “gold general”)
(This term, 全, is an alternative spelling of the above term.)
