酔
(Jōyō kanji, shinjitai kanji,kyūjitai form醉)
- drunk
- feel sick
- Go-on:すい(sui,Jōyō)←すゐ(swi,historical)
- Kan-on:すい(sui,Jōyō)←すゐ(swi,historical)
- Kun:よい(yoi,酔い)←よひ(yofi,酔ひ,historical)←ゑひ(wefi,酔ひ, ancient)、よう(you,酔う,Jōyō)←よふ(yofu,酔ふ,historical)←ゑふ(wefu,酔ふ, ancient)
- As in historical readings "ずゐ", "つゐ", "ゆゐ", and "るゐ", most dictionaries do not have "すゐ" as a historical reading for 酔. According to historical data, its on-reading is the modern "すい". However, the Dai Kanwa Jiten, has the "すゐ" and related -wi historical on-readings.
