Proper name [Japanese]

IPA: [ɲ̟ihõ̞ɴ] Forms: 日本 [canonical] (ruby: (), (ほん)), Nihon [romanization]
Etymology: /nitɨpoɴ/ → /nip̚poɴ/ → /niɸoɴ/ → /nihoɴ/ Coined in Japan of Sinic elements, as compound of 日 (nichi, “sun”) + 本 (hon, “origin”) and literally meaning "origin of the sun". The hon element was apparently pronounced /poɴ/ when first coined. Over time, the initial /p/ lenited, becoming /ɸ/ as shown in the Nifon entry in the 1603 Nippo Jisho ("Japanese-Portuguese Dictionary"). This then became the /h/ sound in modern Japanese. In older texts, this was read as kun'yomi as 日の本 (Hinomoto). The on'yomi readings Nippon and Nihon became more common in the Heian period, with both persisting into modern use. The Nihon reading appears to be the most common in everyday Japanese usage. This may be related to the famous letter from Prince Shōtoku to Emperor Yang of Sui sent via the Japanese mission to Sui China in 607, wherein we see the first mention of Japan as the Land of the Rising Sun, and a description of China as Land of the Setting Sun: : 日出處天子致書日沒處天子無恙云云 [Classical Chinese, trad.]日出处天子致书日没处天子无恙云云 [Classical Chinese, simp.] rì chū chù tiānzǐ zhìshū rì méi chù tiānzǐ wúyàng yúnyún [Pinyin] ...the son of heaven of the land of the rising sun sends a letter to the son of heaven of the place where the sun sets, for good health and so on. 日出處/日出处 (literally “sun + emerge + place”) here refers to Japan, while 日沒處/日没处 (literally “sun + sink + place”) refers to China.

Proper name [Japanese]

IPA: [d͡ʑip̚põ̞ɴ] Forms: 日本 [canonical] (ruby: (じっ), (ぽん)), Jippon [romanization]
Etymology: */zitʉpon/ → /zip̚pon/ → /ʑip̚pon/ Uses the kan'on reading jitsu for 日, as compared to the goon reading nichi. First appears in texts from the early 1600s, notably the 1603 Japanese-Portuguese dictionary Nippo Jisho. Probably influenced by European-language terminology for the country, such as Portuguese Japão or Dutch Japan, in turn arising from Hokkien 日本 (Ji̍t-pún) via Malay Jepun, or from Teochew 日本 (Ji̍k-púng) via Indonesian Malay Jepang.

The hon element was apparently pronounced /poɴ/ when first coined. Over time, the initial /p/ lenited, becoming /ɸ/ as shown in the Nifon entry in the 1603 Nippo Jisho (\"Japanese-Portuguese Dictionary\"). This then became the /h/ sound in modern Japanese.\nIn older texts, this was read as kun'yomi as 日の本 (Hinomoto). The on'yomi readings Nippon and Nihon became more common in the Heian period, with both persisting into modern use. The Nihon reading appears to be the most common in everyday Japanese usage.\nThis may be related to the famous letter from Prince Shōtoku to Emperor Yang of Sui sent via the Japanese mission to Sui China in 607, wherein we see the first mention of Japan as the Land of the Rising Sun, and a description of China as Land of the Setting Sun:\n:\n日出處天子致書日沒處天子無恙云云 [Classical Chinese, trad.]日出处天子致书日没处天子无恙云云 [Classical Chinese, simp.]\nrì chū chù tiānzǐ zhìshū rì méi chù tiānzǐ wúyàng yúnyún [Pinyin]\n...the son of heaven of the land of the rising sun sends a letter to the son of heaven of the place where the sun sets, for good health and so on.\n日出處/日出处 (literally “sun + emerge + place”) here refers to Japan, while 日沒處/日没处 (literally “sun + sink + place”) refers to China.",

The hon element was apparently pronounced /poɴ/ when first coined. Over time, the initial /p/ lenited, becoming /ɸ/ as shown in the Nifon entry in the 1603 Nippo Jisho (\"Japanese-Portuguese Dictionary\"). This then became the /h/ sound in modern Japanese.\nIn older texts, this was read as kun'yomi as 日の本 (Hinomoto). The on'yomi readings Nippon and Nihon became more common in the Heian period, with both persisting into modern use. The Nihon reading appears to be the most common in everyday Japanese usage.\nThis may be related to the famous letter from Prince Shōtoku to Emperor Yang of Sui sent via the Japanese mission to Sui China in 607, wherein we see the first mention of Japan as the Land of the Rising Sun, and a description of China as Land of the Setting Sun:\n:\n日出處天子致書日沒處天子無恙云云 [Classical Chinese, trad.]日出处天子致书日没处天子无恙云云 [Classical Chinese, simp.]\nrì chū chù tiānzǐ zhìshū rì méi chù tiānzǐ wúyàng yúnyún [Pinyin]\n...the son of heaven of the land of the rising sun sends a letter to the son of heaven of the place where the sun sets, for good health and so on.\n日出處/日出处 (literally “sun + emerge + place”) here refers to Japan, while 日沒處/日没处 (literally “sun + sink + place”) refers to China.",
