Old Japanese[edit]

Etymology 1[edit]

Unknown. One theory suggests a contraction of 在処 (ari-ka, “whereabouts”), derived from 有り (ari, “to exist”). Might be related to 石村 (Ipare), possibly from 岩 (ipa, “rock”) + 村 (are).[1]

Noun[edit]

村 (*are) (kana あれ)

  1. a village
Derived terms[edit]

Etymology 2[edit]

No phonographic attestations exist. This reading is glossed to 村邑 in the Atsuda manuscript of the Nihon Shoki.

According to one theory, possibly borrowed from some dialect of Old Korean.[2] Compare Goguryeo 忽 (*xol, *kol, *kolo, *koro, “fortress”).

村 (*pure) (kana ふれ)

  1. a village
    • 720, Nihon Shoki, (Emperor Keitai, eighth year of reign (c. 515 CE), third month in spring):
      駈-略レ子-女、剥-掠レ村-邑。
      [Banpa] took [items] from the children, and stole from the village.

Etymology 3[edit]

Possibly derived from Old Korean 須祇 (*suki).[3]

Noun[edit]

村 (suki1) (kana スキ)

  1. (in ancient Korean contexts) a village
    • 720, Nihon Shoki, (Empress Jingū, forty-ninth year of reign (c. 250 CE), third month in spring):
      百濟王父子及荒田別・木羅斤資等、共會下意流村【今云二州流須祇一】上、相見欣感、厚禮二送遣之一。
      The father-and-son kings of Baekje met both Aredawakë and Mongnakunja (Mokurakonsi) at Uiryu-sugi (Oru-suki) [now called Churyu-sugi (Turu-suki)]; [both sides were] glad to see each other, and exchanged heartfelt thanks as they were sent off.
