Usage notes[edit]
Etymology 2[edit]
First attested in the Gugeupbang eonhae (救急方諺解 / 구급방언해), 1466, as Middle Korean 게〯 (Yale: kěy).
Middle Korean rising pitch implies an earlier bisyllabic form; Japanese 蟹 (kani) is a possible parallel.
Consider also Pyongan Korean 궝이 (gwong'i, “crab”) and Jeju 깅이 (ging'i, “crab”), although both could be secondary developments because Koreanic varieties sometimes insert /ŋ/ to break hiatus between vowels.
Pronunciation[edit]
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ke̞(ː)]
- Phonetic hangul: [게(ː)]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.

Usage notes[edit]
- In contemporary Seoul pronunciation, this word is homophonous with 개 (gae, “dog”). Speakers may resort to circumlocutions in ambiguous situations, e.g. 멍멍 개 (meongmeong gae, “dog that goes meong-meong”), 따각따각 게 (ttagakttagak ge, “crab that goes ttagak-ttagak”), or '꽃게' 할 때 게 (kkotge hal ttae ge, “'crab' as in 'horse crab'”).
Derived terms[edit]
Etymology 3[edit]

Pronunciation[edit]
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ke̞]
