Counter

IPA: [çikʲi] Forms: 疋 [canonical] (ruby: 疋(ひき)), -hiki [romanization]
Etymology: From Middle Chinese 疋 (srjo, “foot; roll of cloth”). Conflated in Japanese with Middle Chinese 匹 (phjit, “counter for horses and mules; counter for rolls of cloth”), both in meaning and in reading. The hichi reading evolved into hiki by association with 引き (hiki, “pulling”), from the way that an animal's leash is pulled. Etymology templates: {{der|ja|ltc|-|sort=ひき}} Middle Chinese, {{cog|ltc|-}} Middle Chinese Head templates: {{ja-pos|counter|ひき}} 疋(ひき) • (-hiki)
  1. Alternative form of 匹: counter for smaller animals Tags: alt-of, alternative Alternative form of: 匹 (extra: counter for smaller animals)
