Etymology 1

Kanji in this term
鵲
かささぎ
Hyōgaiji
kun’yomi
鵲 (kasasagi): a Eurasian magpie

From Old Japanese, first appears in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE.[1]

Derivation unknown, theories include:

  • The initial kasa- may be cognate with or a borrowing from an earlier form of Korean 까치 (kkachi, “magpie”).
  • The final -sagi may be a reference to the white chest, alluding to the similar plumage of certain kinds of 鷺 (sagi, “heron, egret”).
  • Alternatively, the final -sagi may derive from onomatopoeia, imitative of the bird's call.
  • May be a corruption of 烏 (karasu, “crow”) + 鷺 (sagi, “heron, egret”):
    /karasu saɡi/ → */kasːaɡi/ → /kasasaɡi/
  • May be a corruption of カラ (kara, onomatopoeia for cawing, seen in 烏 (karasu), “crow”) + 鷦鷯 (sasagi, “wren”, obsolete):
    /kara sasaɡi/ → /kasasaɡi/
  • May be a corruption of カチカチ (kachikachi, onomatopoeia imitative of the bird's call) + 鷺 (sagi, “heron, egret”):
    /kat͡ɕikat͡ɕi saɡi/ → */kat̚t͡sasaɡi/ → /kasasaɡi/
