刀
かたな

Alternative spellings
釖 (uncommon, obsolete)
𫦫 (rare, obsolete)

From Old Japanese. First cited to the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE.[1] From Proto-Japonic *katana.

Compound of 片 (kata, “one side”) + な (na, “edge”).[2][3][4] This na element is spelled in monolingual Japanese sources as 刃 (“edge, blade”), but there is no historical attestation for any na reading for this character. A comparison with Middle Korean ᄂᆞᆶ〮 (nólh, “blade”) and modern Korean 날 (nal) suggests a Koreanic origin for this latter element.[5]
