Korean
[edit]Etymology 1
[edit]First attested in the Worin seokbo (月印釋譜 / 월인석보), 1459, as Middle Korean 설〯 (Yale: sěl).
The word originally meant both "New Year" and "year of age". The two terms are connected; in Korea, one gains a new year of age at every New Year (so that all people born in the same year have the same age). In the eighteenth century, speakers created the new term 살 (sal, “year of age”) by using a yang-vowel alternation of 설 (seol). 설 (seol) and 살 (sal) are one of a number of Korean noun pairs with yin-yang vowel alternation which were originally the same word.
Pronunciation
[edit]- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [sʰɘ(ː)ɭ]
- Phonetic hangul: [설(ː)]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
