    Etymology

    [edit]
    Kanji in this term
    竹
    たけ
    Grade: 1
    kun'yomi

    From Old Japanese, from Proto-Japonic *takai.

    Theories on derivation include:[1][2]

    • From 長生 (takeou) or 高生 (takahae), in reference to the speed at which bamboo grows.
    • Cognate with 高 (taka), 長 (take), 丈 (take) "height".
    • From 高景 (takakake) or つらこえ (tsurakoe).
    • From ta meaning "tall" (高い (takai)) + ke, ancient form of 木 (ki, “tree”).
    • A contraction of 痛快茎延へ (itakukihae), referring to the speed at which bamboo grows.
    • Ta is from Korean 대 (dae, “bamboo”) (see also 대나무 (daenamu, “bamboo”, literally “bamboo tree”)), while ke is an ancient form of 木 (ki).
