"種子島" meaning in Japanese

See 種子島 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: [ta̠ne̞ɡa̠ɕima̠] Forms: 種子島 [canonical] (ruby: 種子島(たねがしま)), Tanegashima [romanization]
Etymology: Analyzable as a compound of 種 (tane, “seed”) + が (ga, ancient genitive or possessive particle) + 島 (shima, “island”). The 種子 spelling for the tane portion is an example of jukujikun (熟字訓), using the spelling from a Chinese-derived synonym. First mentioned in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE with the spelling 多禰嶋, where 多禰 (tane) appears to be a phonetic spelling of 種 (tane, “seed”), and 嶋 is an alternative form of 島 (shima, “island”). The matchlock sense arose as an abbreviation of either 種子島銃 (Tanegashima jū, literally “Tanegashima gun”) or 種子島鉄砲 (Tanegashima teppō, literally “Tanegashima cannon”), which names arose due to matchlocks first being imported to Japan by the Portuguese in 1543, via the island of Tanegashima. This sense is first cited to a text from 1607, but it was likely in use before this date.
