Etymology 1
| Kanji in this term | |
|---|---|
| 時 | 計 |
| とき > と Grade: 2 (ateji) |
けい Grade: 2 (ateji) |
| irregular | kan'on |
| Alternative spelling |
|---|
| 土圭 |
From Middle Chinese 土圭 (tʰuoX kwei, literally “earth, clay + stack of clay tablets”, a kind of sundial used in the Zhou Dynasty).[1][2][3]
The 土圭 spelling is the original form, with the kan'on reading of tokei. This has been largely superseded by the spelling 時計 in modern writing, which uses the 時 character as ateji (当て字). Alternatively, the kanji spelling could be interpreted as jukujikun (熟字訓), using the meanings of the characters as 時 (“time”) + 計 (“measurement”).
