Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [çi̥to̞ʑit͡ɕi] Forms: 人質 [canonical] (ruby: (ひと), (じち)), hitojichi [romanization]
Etymology: Compound of 人 (hito, “person”) + 質 (shichi, “pawn, hock”). The shichi changes to jichi as an instance of rendaku (連濁). The original sense was “indentureship”, from the sense of a person being as if in pawn until a debt is paid. The “hostage” sense then arose by extension, from the person being in pawn until a ransom is paid or some other condition is met. Etymology templates: {{compound|ja|人|質|sort=ひとじち|t1=person|t2=pawn, hock|tr1=hito|tr2=shichi}} 人 (hito, “person”) + 質 (shichi, “pawn, hock”), {{rendaku2|shichi|jichi|sort=ひとじち}} The shichi changes to jichi as an instance of rendaku (連濁).
