玉蜀黍 in Japanese

IPA: [to̞ːmo̞ɾo̞ko̞ɕi] Forms: 玉蜀黍 [canonical] (ruby: 玉蜀黍(とうもろこし)), 玉蜀黍 [canonical] (ruby: 玉蜀黍(トウモロコシ)), tōmorokoshi [romanization], taumorokosi [romanization], たうもろこし [hiragana, historical] [Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: /taumorokoɕi/ → /tɔːmorokoɕi/ → /toːmorokoɕi/ Originally a compound of 唐 (tō, “Tang Dynasty; China in general; (by extension) foreign”) + もろこし (morokoshi, “sorghum”), from the visual similarities between the sorghum and maize plants. The spelling is jukujikun (熟字訓) from Chinese, and appears to be a compound of 玉 (yù, “jade, jewel”) + 蜀黍 (shǔshǔ, “sorghum”, literally “Shu millet”). Compare modern Mandarin 玉蜀黍 (yùshǔshǔ, “maize”).
