檜

  1. Used in personal names.
    秦檜／秦桧  ―  Qín Huì  ―  Qin Hui
Usage notes
edit
  • Its use in personal names is now rare because of Qin Hui (1090-1155), a chancellor of the Southern Song who is widely regarded and condemned as a traitor to the Chinese people for his part in the persecution and execution of his political enemy, Yue Fei, a general who fought for the Song against the Jin dynasty during the Jin–Song Wars.

Etymology 1

edit
Japanese Wikipedia has an article on:

English Wikipedia has an article on:

檜 (hinoki): a large Japanese cypress in Daichiji temple in Gifu City.
Kanji in this term
檜
ひのき
Jinmeiyō
kun'yomi
Alternative spellings
桧 (shinjitai)
檜木

Originally a compound of 檜 (hi, “Japanese cypress”, see below) +‎ の (no, attributive particle) +‎ 木 (ki, “tree”).[1][2]

The wood and bark was commonly used as tinder, and the term was previously thought to be from 火 (hi, “fire”) +‎ の (no, attributive particle) +‎ 木 (ki, “tree”). However, later research into ancient kana usage in Old Japanese revealed that 檜 had a reading of ⟨pi1⟩, while 火 was read as ⟨pi2⟩, ruling out this derivation.[1]
