"やもめ" meaning in Japanese

See やもめ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ja̠mo̞me̞] Forms: yamome [romanization]
Etymology: From Old Japanese. Originally a compound of an uncertain element やも (yamo) + 女(め) (me, “woman”). The same element is also found in やもお (yamoo, “widower”, archaic), a compound with 男(お) (o, “man”). The original sense of “widow” is first attested in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE, while the sense of “widower” arose later, in the 10th century, and is first recorded in the The Tales of Ise. See also やまめ (yamame), an archaic shift from yamome.

The same element is also found in やもお (yamoo, “widower”, archaic), a compound with 男(お) (o, “man”).\nThe original sense of “widow” is first attested in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE, while the sense of “widower” arose later, in the 10th century, and is first recorded in the The Tales of Ise. See also やまめ (yamame), an archaic shift from yamome.",
