亀毛兎角[edit]

@Eirikr I wasn't trying to imply that 兎に角 was directly derived from 亀毛兎角. I was wondering if the choice of kanji may have been influenced by the existence of 亀毛兎角 in any way. —Suzukaze-c 02:37, 11 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Suzukaze-c: Ah, thank you for clarifying. That's entirely possible. I don't have any information to hand on the timing of the history, in terms of when 亀毛兎角 appeared versus the appearance of the 兎に角 spelling. You may be onto something. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 16:39, 11 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
