Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [a̠ma̠no̞ʑa̠kɯ̟ᵝ] Forms: 天邪鬼 [canonical] (ruby: (あまの), (じゃ), ()), amanojaku [romanization]
Etymology: Compound of 天 (ama, “heaven”) + の (no, possessive particle) + 邪鬼 (jaki, “vengeful spirit, cursing kami”). The jaku reading for the 邪鬼 term is unusual, and the reason for this deviation from the expected jaki reading is unclear. One theory holds that the reading is a shift from 天探女 (ama no sagume), the name of a yōkai that appears in ancient Japanese tales and that seems to have been conflated with the Buddhist jaki, a malevolent demon that leads people astray from the path to enlightenment: * /ama no saɡume/ → /amanozaku/ → /amanod͡ʑaku/ There is a cluster of phonologically similar forms listed in some sources, referring either to the Buddhist entity or the yōkai, consistent with the conflation theory: * /amanod͡ʑaku/, /amanod͡ʑako/, /amanozaku/, /amanozako/, /amanɕaɡume/ The amanojaku reading appears to be the most common reading for the 天邪鬼 spelling.
