Etymology
[edit]/tati/ → /tat͡ɕi/
From Old Japanese. Appears in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE.[1]
Derived from 断ち (tachi), the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “stem or continuative form”) of verb 断つ (tatsu, “to sever”).[1][2][3][4]
The kanji spelling is a shift from the original Chinese 大刀 (dàdāo, literally “great blade”), indicating straight swords before the Heian period, and later indicating curved swords.
