Etymology

[edit]

First attested in the Gugeupganibang eonhae (救急簡易方諺解 / 구급간이방언해), 1489, as Middle Korean ᄌᆞᄎᆡ욤 (Yale: cochoyywom).

ᄌᆞᄎᆡ욤 is not the direct ancestor of Modern 재채기 (jaechaegi). Both are derived via a nominalizing suffix, -m for the former and -ki for the latter, from the (unattested) verb *ᄌᆞᄎᆡ다 (*cochoyta, “to sneeze”).

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [t͡ɕɛt͡ɕʰɛɡi] ~ [t͡ɕe̞t͡ɕʰe̞ɡi]
  • Phonetic hangul: [/]
