Etymology
[edit]Compound of 蒲 (kama, “cattail, bulrush”) + 鉾 (hoko, “spear”). The cattail plant sense is from the way the seed spike resembles a spear. The food-related sense comes from the way the fishcake would often be shaped into a tube on a skewer for roasting, resembling a cattail seed spike in shape and sometimes color. The hoko changes to boko as an instance of rendaku (連濁).. [1][2][3]
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun
[edit]- the seed spike or raceme of the cattail or bulrush plant
- a traditional Japanese fishcake: any of various processed seafood products made from surimi, in which whitefish is pureed, formed into loaves, and steamed until firm
Usage notes
[edit]Generally written in hiragana due to the high number of strokes and rarity of the characters used in the kanji spelling.
