Etymology[edit]

| とら Grade: S |
| kun’yomi |
From Old Japanese to1ra.[1][2]
Pellard (2013:92) includes to1ra among words with o1 excepted from the /-o-/ to /-u-/ vowel-raising rule and not originating from earlier diphthongs. According to Vovin (2021:111), West Old Japanese *to1ra, instead of expected *tura, is "anomalous" and possibly "a case of a sporadic analogical development".[3]
Vovin (2013) asserts this word is same as a Silla place name 刀良 (/*tora/).[4]
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
- a tiger (The mammal Panthera tigris)
Usage notes[edit]
As with many terms that name organisms, this term is often spelled in katakana, especially in biological contexts (where katakana is customary), as トラ.
