널빤지

Korean

Etymology

First attested in the Yeogeo yuhaebo (譯語類解補 / 역어유해보), 1775, as Early Modern Korean 널판ᄌᆞ (Yale: nelphanco). From 널 (neol, “board, plank”) and 반지 (板子, banji, “board”). Modern reflex of the latter: 판자 (板子, panja, “board”).

Pronunciation
  • (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈnɘ(ː)ɭp͈a̠ɲd͡ʑi]
  • Phonetic hangul: [널(ː)빤지]
    • Though still prescriptive in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
