녁 (nyeok) (obsolete)

Etymology

First attested in the Seokbo sangjeol (釋譜詳節 / 석보상절), 1447, as Middle Korean 녘 (Yale: nyekh). From obsolete 녑 (nyeop, “side”), whence modern 옆 (yeop, “side”). It escaped the regular word-initial ny > y sound change as it was chiefly found as the second component of compounds expressing directions and proximity in time.

Pronunciation

(SK Standard/Seoul) IPA^(key): [ɲʌ̹k̚]
Phonetic hangul: [녁]
