Korean[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Sino-Korean word from 변온(變溫) (byeonon, “allotherm”) + 동물(動物) (dongmul, “animal”).
Pronunciation[edit]
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈpjɘ(ː)no̞n to̞(ː)ŋmuɭ]
- Phonetic hangul: [벼(ː)논 동(ː)물]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
