IPA: [mʲina̠zɨᵝkʲi] Forms: 水無月 [canonical] (ruby: 水(み), 無(な), 月(づき)), minazuki [romanization] [Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: From Old Japanese, a compound of 水 (mi, “water”) + な (na, alternative form of possessive particle の (no)) + 月 (tsuki, “month”). The tsuki changes to zuki as an instance of rendaku (連濁). Originally referred to the month in which rice paddies need more irrigation; the use of 無 (“not; none; without”) is in reference to this need for more water.
