Noun

IPA: [nã̠mbã̠ɲ̟d͡ʑĩɴ] Forms: 南蛮人 [canonical] (ruby: (なん), (ばん), (じん)), nanbanjin [romanization]
Etymology: Compound of 南蛮 (nanban, “southern barbarian”) + 人 (jin, “person”). Originally used to refer to the southern 夷 (ebisu, non-Japanese ethnic groups living in the Japanese archipelago), later used to refer to westerners arriving in Japan from the south. In this later usage, nanbanjin first referred just to the Portuguese and Spanish, while the Dutch were called 紅毛 (kōmō, “red hair”). Over time, this distinction became less important, and nanbanjin referred to westerners in general.
