Etymology 1
/tani/ → /dani/
From (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Old Japanese. Shift from earlier reading tani.[1][2] This reading persists in some modern dialects.
The kanji spelling is jukujikun (熟字訓), from Chinese 壁蝨/壁虱 (bìshī). The characters literally mean 壁 (“wall”) + 蝨 (“louse”), as an indication that ticks and mites may be found on walls.
