Firstattested asLate Old Korean慨 in theJīlín lèishì (鷄林類事 / 계림유사)[1], 1103. In thehangul script, first attested in theGugeupbang eonhae (救急方諺解 / 구급방언해), 1466, asMiddle Korean게〯 (Yale:kěy).
Middle Korean rising pitchimplies an earlier bisyllabic form;Japanese蟹(kani) is a possible parallel.
Consider alsoPyongan Korean궝이(gwong'i,“crab”) andJeju깅이(ging'i,“crab”), although both could be secondary developments because Koreanic varieties sometimes insert/ŋ/ to breakhiatus betweenvowels.
