Etymology
| Kanji in this term |
|---|
| 狐 |
| きつね Hyōgaiji |
| kun'yomi |
From Old Japanese. Appears in the Man'yōshū, completed some time after 759 CE.
Ultimate derivation unknown. There are various theories. The most likely is based on the root form kitsu, which may have originally been onomatopoeic for the sound of a fox's cry.[1] The final ne syllable appeared for certain by the Heian period,[2] but its meaning remains unclear.
