Counter [Korean]

IPA: [ˈsʰa̠(ː)ɾa̠m] [SK-Standard, Seoul] Forms: saram [romanization]
Etymology: First attested in the Hunminjeong'eum haerye (訓民正音解例 / 훈민정음해례), 1446, as Middle Korean 사〯ᄅᆞᆷ (Yale: sǎlòm), from earlier Old Korean 人音 (*SALOm). In Middle Korean, 사〯ᄅᆞᆷ (Yale: sǎlòm) was a derived substantive of 살〯다〮 (Yale: sǎl-tá, “to live”) with ᄋᆞᆷ (Yale: -om, nominalizer) (> modern 음 (eum)), and thus literally meant "one who is alive". It is no longer perceived as a derived noun by modern speakers. Doublet of 삶 (sam). Cognate with Jeju 사름 (sareum).
