IPA: [tẽ̞ŋɡa̠ʑɨː] Forms: 天鵞絨 [canonical] (ruby: 天(てん), 鵞(が), 絨(じゅう)), tengajū [romanization]
Etymology: The 1734 work 本朝世事綺談 (Honchō Seji Kidan, “Embellished Tales of Everyday Japan”; also listed as 本朝世事談綺, with the last two characters swapped) describes this kanji spelling as arising from how velvet shines and shimmers in a way reminiscent of a swan's plumage: 天鵞 (tenga, “swan”, obsolete) + 絨 (jū, “thick fabric”).
