"이마" meaning in Korean

See 이마 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ima̠] [SK-Standard, Seoul] Forms: ima [romanization], 니마 [alternative, Early, Modern]
Etymology: First attested in the Seokbo sangjeol (釋譜詳節 / 석보상절), 1447, as Middle Korean 니맣〮 (Yale: nìmáh), from pre-Middle Korean *nìmák. Beyond Middle Korean, the second syllable in Jeolla dialect 대망 (daemang, “forehead”) and Jeju 대맹이 (daemaeng'i, “head”) may suggest that *-mak was originally a separate morpheme; these two words seem to share the same first morpheme as 대가리 (daegari, “head”), which is widely recognized as a compound. *nìmák may then originally have been multimorphemic. However, it is also possible that 대망 (daemang, “forehead”) is simply unrelated and has no bearing on the etymology of 이마 (ima).

Beyond Middle Korean, the second syllable in Jeolla dialect 대망 (daemang, “forehead”) and Jeju 대맹이 (daemaeng'i, “head”) may suggest that *-mak was originally a separate morpheme; these two words seem to share the same first morpheme as 대가리 (daegari, “head”), which is widely recognized as a compound. *nìmák may then originally have been multimorphemic. However, it is also possible that 대망 (daemang, “forehead”) is simply unrelated and has no bearing on the etymology of 이마 (ima).",
