Verb

IPA: [a̠ɯ̟]
Etymology: Uncertain. Inherited from Old Japanese. Theories of earliest origin include: * Imitative of the upper and lower lips meeting * Shortened from 二肖経 (フタアエフ futa aefu, two go-together) * Shortened from アアフツ (aa futsu), the latter portion a variant of 二(ふた)つ (futatsu, “two”) * Either 間(あい) (ai, “relation”) → 逢(あふ) (afu, “meeting”) → 会(あう) (au) or 逢(あふ) (afu) → 間(あい) (ai) → 会(あう) (au) Various forms of あう (合, 会, 逢, 遭; “join; be together; meet”) are attested from the Middle Ages (c. 1185-1573). Compare 合(あ)う (au).
