Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [ho̞ːɾẽ̞ɰ̃so̞ː] Forms: 菠薐草 [canonical] (ruby: 菠薐草(ほうれんそう)), 菠薐草 [canonical] (ruby: 菠薐草(ホウレンソウ)), hōrensō [romanization], faurensau [romanization], はうれんさう [hiragana, historical]
Etymology: The plant was introduced to Japan in the 16th century from China. A number of Japanese sources state that the term 菠薐 (hōren) had previously been borrowed from Middle Chinese 菠薐 to refer vaguely to Persia or Nepal. The spinach plant did likely originate in the area of ancient Persia, but the Chinese term itself means spinach, not Nepal or Persia or any other place name. The plant was introduced to China via the region of Nepal around the year 647, suggesting that the Chinese term may have been borrowed from the Sanskrit language in use by the Licchavi kingdom ruling Nepal at that time. One possible Sanskrit source term is पालङ्ग (pālaṅga, “beet” or “beet greens” initially, later extended to also refer to “spinach”). Compare modern Nepali पालुङ्गो (pāluṅgo, “spinach”). The Japanese term would thus be a compound of 菠薐 (hōren, “spinach”, obsolete, not used in modern Japanese) + 草 (sō, “herb, plant”). The alternative kanji spellings are ateji or phonetic substitutions.

  "etymology_text": "The plant was introduced to Japan in the 16th century from China. A number of Japanese sources state that the term 菠薐 (hōren) had previously been borrowed from Middle Chinese 菠薐 to refer vaguely to Persia or Nepal. The spinach plant did likely originate in the area of ancient Persia, but the Chinese term itself means spinach, not Nepal or Persia or any other place name. The plant was introduced to China via the region of Nepal around the year 647, suggesting that the Chinese term may have been borrowed from the Sanskrit language in use by the Licchavi kingdom ruling Nepal at that time. One possible Sanskrit source term is पालङ्ग (pālaṅga, “beet” or “beet greens” initially, later extended to also refer to “spinach”). Compare modern Nepali पालुङ्गो (pāluṅgo, “spinach”).\nThe Japanese term would thus be a compound of 菠薐 (hōren, “spinach”, obsolete, not used in modern Japanese) + 草 (sō, “herb, plant”).\nThe alternative kanji spellings are ateji or phonetic substitutions.",
