From Middle Chinese compound 汗疹 (hanH trhinH, literally “sweat + rash”). Compare modern Mandarin 汗疹 (hànzhěn, “miliaria”).

  • (Tokyo) かんしん [kàńshíń] (Heiban – [0])[1]
  • IPA(key): [kã̠ɰ̃ɕĩɴ]

汗(かん)疹(しん) • (kanshin)

Kanji in this term
汗 疹
あせ
Grade: S
も
Hyōgaiji
kun’yomi jukujikun

Compound of 汗 (ase, “sweat”) + uncertain element も (mo) or ぼ (bo). According to one theory, this may be an alteration of 疣 (ibo, imo, “wart, verruca”). This same ibo / imo element appears in the reading for 疱瘡 (imogasa), an archaic word for a pockmark or a pox and sometimes shortened to just imo.

The use of the 疹 kanji to spell the -mo portion is an example of jukujikun (熟字訓).

Pronunciation

  • (Tokyo) あせも​ [àsémóꜜ] (Odaka – [3])[1]
  • IPA(key): [a̠se̞mo̞]

Noun

汗(あせ)疹(も) • (asemo)
