"変態" meaning in All languages combined

See 変態 on Wiktionary

Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [hẽ̞nta̠i] Forms: 変態 [canonical] (ruby: (へん), (たい)), hentai [romanization]
Etymology: First used as an entomological term in publications by the Entomological Society of Japan, with later non-entomological applications in the broader zoology and botany. The narrower sense, "abnormal" is attested in Chinese works, such as those by Mao Dun; but the strictest sense, "abnormal sexual tendency," - from a contraction of 変態性欲 (hentai seiyoku, literally “abnormal sexual desire”) - may have been due to a reinterpretation of 変 (hen) as a 形容動詞 (keiyō dōshi, “adjectival verb”) meaning "strange," hence "strange state" rather than "change state."

The narrower sense, \"abnormal\" is attested in Chinese works, such as those by Mao Dun; but the strictest sense, \"abnormal sexual tendency,\" - from a contraction of 変態性欲 (hentai seiyoku, literally “abnormal sexual desire”) - may have been due to a reinterpretation of 変 (hen) as a 形容動詞 (keiyō dōshi, “adjectival verb”) meaning \"strange,\" hence \"strange state\" rather than \"change state.\"",
