Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [ta̠ikʲo̞kɯ̟ᵝ] Forms: 太極 [canonical] (ruby: (たい), (きょく)), taikyoku [romanization]
Etymology: Ultimately from Middle Chinese 太極 (MC thajH gik). First cited to a text from roughly 1060, with the spelling 大極. The main spelling in Japanese is 太極. The alternative with 大 instead of 太 appears to be largely obsolete, and is not listed in many dictionaries.
