Etymology 3

| 鼾 |
| くつち Hyōgaiji |
| kun’yomi |
| Alternative spellings |

| 癲狂 癲癇 |
Apparently the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “continuative or stem form”) of obsolete verb 鼾つ (kutsutsu, “to sleep while snoring”, possibly onomatopoeic).[1]
The epilepsy sense may have arisen from how one's breathing may be spastic and vaguely similar to snoring when suffering an epileptic seizure.
However, the conjugation of this putative verb is unknown, and it is only encountered in what would be the nominalized 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “continuative or stem form”) of kutsuchi.[1] This leaves open the possibility of alternative origins:
- May be a compound of 口 (kutsu, “mouth”, the bound form of modern 口 (kuchi), only found in compounds) + 風 (chi, “wind”, from the way that snoring often happens when breathing through the mouth, or from the way that an epileptic seizure may involve spastic breathing vaguely similar to snoring).
- The epilepsy sense may be a compound of 口 (kutsu, “mouth”, the bound form of modern 口 (kuchi), only found in compounds) + 血 (chi, “blood”, from the common occurrence of biting one's tongue during an epileptic seizure).
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): [kɯ̟ᵝt͡sɨᵝt͡ɕi]
Derived terms
- 鼾掻 (kutsuchikaki): a person who has epilepsy; (obsolete) a snorer, a person who snores
- 鼾臥す (kutsuchifusu): to sleep while snoring
