Etymology 1

Kanji in this term
雨
あめ Grade: 1
kun'yomi

⟨ame₂⟩ → */aməɨ/ → /ame/

From Old Japanese, ultimately from Proto-Japonic *amay.

Cognate with 天 (ame, unbound apophonic of ama, “sky”), as in the location of clouds where water precipitates from.

Pronunciation

• (Tokyo) あめ [áꜜmè] (Atamadaka – [1])
• IPA^(key): [a̠me̞]

Noun

雨(あめ) • (ame) 

1. rain, rainfall

   一(ひと)雨(あめ)ごとに春(はる)が来(く)る ― hitoame goto ni haru ga kuru ― spring nears by each rainfall

2. a rainy weather

   Synonym: 雨天 (uten)

3. (figurative) something falling like rain

Usage notes

• In some compounds, when suffixed, ame becomes same. It is unclear if this leading /s/ is indicative of an earlier same, or if this was an epenthesis for euphony to avoid vowel clusters, or for other reasons. This /s/ is also seen in 青 (ao, becoming sao in old compounds) and 稲 (ine, becoming shine in old compounds). Given that this /s/ only ever appears interstitially, and given the semantics, this /s/ may be cognate with Korean interfix ᄉ (-s-) used to mark possession, much like English -s-.
