Etymology

[edit]

First attested in the Hunmong jahoe (訓蒙字會 / 훈몽자회), 1527, as Middle Korean 나친〮 (Yale: nàchín), from Middle Mongol ᠨᠠᠴᠢᠨ (način, falcon), whence Mongolian начин (način); ultimately from an unknown Central Asiatic source. Compare also Common Turkic *lāčïn (falcon) along with its descendants, such as Azerbaijani laçın, Turkmen laçyn and Kazakh лашын (laşyn), and Manchu ᠨᠠᠴᡳᠨ (nacin, falcon).

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈna̠(ː)ɲt͡ɕʰuni]
  • Phonetic hangul: [(ː)]
    • Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
