Japanese
Etymology 1
From Middle Chinese 石榴 (MC dzyek ljuw, literally “stone + pomegranate”). Compare modern Wu reading zaq lieu, Hakka sa̍k-liù.
The zakuro reading is irregular. This may represent a shift in pronunciation from an older borrowing: compare the expected goon reading jakuru. Alternatively, this reading may reflect an ancient sound borrowing, indicating the Zagros Mountains of modern-day Iran, where the pomegranate was originally cultivated.[1]
The spelling 柘榴 is attested in 747 CE.[2] The zakuro reading is attested to at least the late 900s in the 古今和歌六帖 (Kokin Waka Rokujō, “Six Volumes of Waka Poetry of Ancient and Modern Times”).[2]
Pronunciation
Noun
- [from 747] pomegranate
Usage notes
As with many terms that name organisms, this term is often spelled in katakana, especially in biological contexts (where katakana is customary), as ザクロ.
Derived terms
- 石榴石 (zakuroishi): garnet (gemstone)
- 石榴口 (zakuroguchi): a low door used in bathhouses during the Edo period
- 石榴ざか (zakurozaka): a rooster's crest or comb that resembles a pomegranate
- 石榴草 (zakurosō): Mollugo pentaphylla
- 石榴鼻 (zakurobana): a red swollen nose, often seen on alcoholics
Etymology 2
From Middle Chinese 石榴 (MC dzyek ljuw, literally “stone + pomegranate”). Uses the regular goon reading of jaku for the first character, and the irregular ro reading for the second character instead of the expected goon reading of ru.
The jakuro reading is attested from the mid-1400s.[2] While rare and missing from some dictionaries,[3][5] this reading is attested more recently in a text from the 1960s.[2]
Pronunciation
Noun
- [from mid-1400s] (rare) pomegranate
Usage notes
The zakuro reading above is the most common reading for this term.
