汗疹

汗疹

1. miliaria, sweat rash

• 痱子 (fèizi), 熱痱／热痱

From Middle Chinese compound 汗疹 (han^H trhin^H, 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) 

1. miliaria: prickly heat, heat rash

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).

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