Korean

Etymology

First attested in the Yongbi eocheon'ga (龍飛御天歌 / 용비어천가), 1447, as Middle Korean 곶〮 (Yale: kwóc).

Related to 곶〮 (Yale: kwóc, “skewer; skewered food”) and hence to 곶다〮 (Yale: kwòc-tá, “to pierce, to skewer”), because a cape "skewers" the sea; modern forms for the two are 꼬치 (kkochi) and 꽂다 (kkotda) respectively. One of rare cases of hun (semantic) reading of hanja surviving in Modern Korean.

Pronunciation

(SK Standard/Seoul) IPA^(key): [ko̞t̚]
