Proper name [Japanese]

IPA: [mo̞ɾo̞ko̞ɕi] Forms: Morokoshi [romanization]
Etymology: ⟨mo₂ro₂ ko₁si⟩ → ⟨moro₂ko₁si⟩ → */morəkosi/ → /morokoɕi/ From Old Japanese, first attested in the Man'yōshū (c. 759 CE). Originally a compound of 諸 (moro-, prefix meaning "many") + 越 (koshi), the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “stem or continuative form”) of 越す (kosu, “to cross (over)”), by reinterpretation of kun-reading 越 (koshi) from on-reading of 越 (Etsu). The compound refers to the 百越 (Bǎiyuè, “Baiyue”, literally “Hundred Yue”), a collective name for various ethnic groups which inhabited Southern China. The kanji spellings 唐土 and 唐 are jukujikun (熟字訓), literally meaning “Tang land” and “Tang” respectively.
