Etymology 6[edit]

@Sorjam Are you sure about this section? —Suzukaze-c 01:38, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Suzukaze-c Hi, Suzukaze-c. I have made this section because the syllable (gat) can be represented by hanja 加 and 假. Now, I am aware that 표준국어대사전 does not mention this fact, but if you look up 갓 in Martin, Lee & Chang (1975)'s dictionary at pages 57-58, you will find that there are a few Sino-Korean words, mainly 갓법 (加法, gatbeop, “addition”), 갓수 (加數, gatsu, “addend”) and 갓자 (假者, gatja, “imitation”) (also written 가짜 (gajja), but the former spelling seems to be etymological), which can indeed be represented by those two hanja. Again, for some reason 표준국어대사전 does not have any of these words, but Naver does give some information (though, I must admit, very limited) about 갓법. If you search for 갓법 in Naver, it will return the compound words 갓법역원 (gatbeobyeogwon, “additive inverse”) and 도식 갓법 (圖式加法, dosik gatbeop, “graphical addition”), and, as you can see, the latter has an hanja writing which contains 加. In conclusion, although the Sino-Korean words associated with those hanja are difficult to find in online dictionaries, I don't think there is some doubt that they actually exist, and if Martin, Lee & Chang (1975) register them, I think there are good reasons to maintain this section, if you are ok with it. — Sorjam (talk) 11:53, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
Hm, a quick Google search for "갓법 加法" suggests that this -s is the 사이시옷. IMO, #Etymology 6 is not proper. —Suzukaze-c 15:05, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Sorjam: Hi. (gat) is not the Hangeul reading of (, ga) and (, ga). If you are able to find examples such as 갓법 (加法, gatbeop, “addition”), 갓수 (加數, gatsu, “addend”) and 갓자 (假者, gatja, “imitation”), please add them as archaic spellings under the "Alternative forms" section of 가법 (加法, gabeop), 가수 (加數, gasu), 가자 (假者, gaja) on a case-by-case basis.

@KevinUp: Ok. Since the section has already been amended, I will certainly add those two archaic spellings under the corresponding entries. I didn't thought about the possibility that the -s could be 사이시옷 in this case. My mistake. So, thank you, @Suzukaze-c, for the correction. — Sorjam (talk) 19:37, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
