/oɴ//o/

Shift from on- below.[2][3]

Already apparent since the 14th century.

Prefix

[edit]

() (o-

  1. indicates that the [word] is honorific; often used to indicate that the [word] belongs or is related to the listener (as opposed to the speaker)
Usage notes
[edit]

Not to be confused with (ō-, great), which is a less-commonly used prefix.

Almost exclusively written in hiragana, to disambiguate with the heteronyms below.

Prefixed to the native Japanese words, as in 御水 (o-mizu, water) (words read with kun'yomi). However, there are numerous exceptions such as お弁当 (o-bentō) and お電話 (o-denwa). In old use, prefixed short women's names regardless of the type of reading, for example お菊 (o-Kiku), おしん (o-Shin), お仙 (o-Sen), お妙 (o-Tae), etc. For 外来語 (gairaigo, (non-Chinese) foreign loan words), this prefix is seldom used, but somewhat preferred in the jargon of some kinds of industry, as in おビール (o-bīru, beer).

Usage varies between speakers, situations, and gender – more polite speech, especially by women, features more use of this prefix, while blunt speech, especially by men, uses it less or not at all (words where the prefix has become mandatory are replaced by blunter terms that do not have the prefix). In rare cases a prefixed term has become impolite, as in 御前 (omae, you (familiar or derogatory)).

First attested in the Wamyō Ruijushō (938 CE), as man'yōgana form 於保无 (opomu- → ōmu-) within 於保无太加良 (opomutakara → ōmutakara, people, as a kun reading of 人民).

Shift from Old Japanese 大御 (⟨opomi1 → ōmi-, prefix of maximum honorific).

Both ōmu- and ōn- readings likely existed in free variation until the development of the (n) grapheme.

Usage notes

[edit]

Primarily for the religious words, pertaining to gods or the emperor, as in 御輿 (mikoshi, portable shrine). However, in this context it is often replaced by ("god", also pronounced mi-), and then a further (​o-) may be added, as in 御神輿 (o-mikoshi). The mi- prefix also became merged into other kanji, as in (miya, imperial palace).

Etymology 5

goon

From Middle Chinese (MC ngjoH).

The goon reading, so likely the initial borrowing.

Prefix

() (go-

  1. indicates that the [word] is honorific; often used to indicate that the [word] belongs or is related to the listener (as opposed to the speaker)
Usage notes
[edit]

Prefixed to the Sino-Japanese words, as in 御主人 (goshujin, husband).

While in general this prefix is optional, in many cases it is so commonly used that the base word can no longer be used in isolation, as in 御飯 (gohan, rice) – the form × (*han) is not used alone, though it can be used as parts of compounds (such as 炊飯, suihan, “rice cooking”), and the character can be read in isolation as meshi.

It may also be used with modern foreign borrowings.
