IPA: [e̞zo̞] Forms: 蝦夷 [canonical] (ruby: 蝦夷(えぞ)), Ezo [romanization]
Etymology: First cited in the 久安百首 (Kyūan Hyaku Shu, “Hundred Songs of the Kyūan Era”) of 1153. There are conflicting theories regarding the derivation of the term Ezo. The Daijirin, Shinmeikai, and Gakken dictionaries all suggest that Ezo may be a borrowing from Ainu エンチウ, enciw (“person; people, humanity”), presumably via a phonological shift somewhat like the below: : /ent͡siw/ → */ent͡ʃiu/ → */ent͡ʃu/ → */end͡ʑu/ → /ezo/ The Kokugo Dai Jiten dictionary instead derives synonymous reading Emishi from enciw, but the phonological shifts required for such a derivation seem unlikely.

The Daijirin, Shinmeikai, and Gakken dictionaries all suggest that Ezo may be a borrowing from Ainu エンチウ, enciw (“person; people, humanity”), presumably via a phonological shift somewhat like the below:\n: /ent͡siw/ → */ent͡ʃiu/ → */ent͡ʃu/ → */end͡ʑu/ → /ezo/\nThe Kokugo Dai Jiten dictionary instead derives synonymous reading Emishi from enciw, but the phonological shifts required for such a derivation seem unlikely.",

The Daijirin, Shinmeikai, and Gakken dictionaries all suggest that Ezo may be a borrowing from Ainu エンチウ, enciw (“person; people, humanity”), presumably via a phonological shift somewhat like the below:\n: /ent͡siw/ → */ent͡ʃiu/ → */ent͡ʃu/ → */end͡ʑu/ → /ezo/\nThe Kokugo Dai Jiten dictionary instead derives synonymous reading Emishi from enciw, but the phonological shifts required for such a derivation seem unlikely.",

Possibly from Ainu emush or emus (“sword”) via metonymous use to refer to a warrior.\nAccording to the Kojiki-den, the kanji spelling 蝦 (“shrimp”) + 夷 (“barbarian”) is in reference to their hairiness and savagery.",
