Ideogram (指事) – a man with a mask () over his face. Possible interpretations:

  • Strange, bizarre — "uncommon".
  • Different face — "different".

Compare (“demon”), where the also derives from a face or a mask. Compare also , in which the top component represents either a mask or a monkey's face.

Alternatively, may be a pictogram (象形) of a person carrying something on his head, the original form of (“to carry on the head”).

Modern form is graphically + , though this is not the etymology.

Hanja

[edit]

(eum (ri))

  1. Only used in certain placenames.
Usage notes
[edit]

The reading (ri) in certain placenames such as 지리산 (智異山, Jirisan) is caused by 활음조 현상 (滑音調 現像, hwareumjo hyeonsang, “euphony”) which altered the original sound from (i) to (ri).[1] This concept (ease of pronunciation) is closely related to the initial sound law 두음 법칙 (頭音法則, dueum beopchik) in South Korea.
