Etymology 1
- “Person; I; me > suffix for pronouns” in southeastern varieties
Its senses of “person; human being” and “pronoun suffix” are well-attested in the classical literature, dating back to the Six Dynasties. At the present time, traces of this word are found in various Southern regions such as Fujian, Jiangxi and Zhejiang, in Wu, Min, Hui and Gan.
- “Person; human”
- In Coastal Min (Eastern, Southern and Puxian Min), it serves as the vernacular reading of 人 (OC *njin, “person”), by itself or in compounds. It is also used in Jinqu Wu lects (also classified as Wuzhou Wu and Chuqu Wu), usually written as 農.
- “I”
- 儂 was used to mean “I” in medieval poetry from the Wu region, before it was displaced by the more common 我 (MC ŋɑX, “I”). Also attested was Ancient Wu 阿儂 (MC ʔɑ nuoŋ, “I”), which was abbreviated to 阿 (“I”) in certain localities, such as that of Jinhua.
- “Pronoun suffix”
- This is widely found in Wu and Min languages. The structure ‹ singular pronoun (“I, you, he/she/it”) + 儂 › is common, with 儂 functioning either as a meaningless particle or a pluraliser. The resulting forms were thus used to mean singular or plural pronouns, and were rather prone to elision to become a single syllable. Compare the following plural pronouns in Min:
Original word Meaning Fuding
(Eastern Min)Longyan
(Southern Min)Xiamen
(Southern Min)Xianyou
(Puxian Min)我儂 we ua neiŋ gua laŋ gun (阮) kuoŋ ~ kŋ (滾) 儂儂 we (inclusive) - laŋ laŋ lan (咱) - 汝儂 you (plural) ni neiŋ li laŋ lin (恁) tyøŋ (長) 伊儂 they i neiŋ i laŋ in (𪜶) yøŋ (𪜶)
- A similar chain of changes happened in the Wu varieties to arrive at the modern divergent dialectal forms for “you (singular)”.
爾儂 (MC ȵiᴇX nuoŋ) Lect Term Northern Fenghua /n̩˧˨˦ noŋ/ 爾儂／尔侬 Yuyao /noŋ˩˩˧/ 儂／侬 Shanghai /noŋ˩˩˧/ 儂／侬 Ningbo /nəu˨˩˧/ 諾／诺 Changshu /nɛ̃˧˩/ 倷 Suzhou /ne̞˧˩/ 倷 Shengze /nə˧˩/ 倷 Jinqu Tangxi /ŋ˨˩˩ noŋ˩˨/ 爾儂／尔侬 Lanxi /ŋ˥˦˦ noŋ˦˧˧/ 爾儂／尔侬
- Some lects, such as Shanghainese, have merged the two syllables into one, leaving 儂／侬 to mean “you (singular)”.
With regard to the etymology of this word, Huang (1980), Norman (1983) and Zhou (1986) hypothesised that this is the same as 農 (OC *nuːŋ, “farmer; peasant”). The use of this word as a pronoun may have originated as a form of personal deprecation and then come to be used as a full-fledged pronoun. Pan and Chen (1995) disagree, proposing that nong was originally a Baiyue substrate word possibly of Kra-Dai origin, and possibly an original clan name later developing to mean “person; I”. Compare Zhuang Nungz (“a surname”) and name of the 11th century Zhuang leader Nong Zhigao, as well as the name of the Nùng people in Vietnam.

| Kanji in this term |
|---|

| わし Hyōgaiji |
| kun’yomi |
| Alternative spelling |
|---|
| 私 |
Contraction of 私 (watashi, “I, me”).[1][2]
Alternative forms
- 私 (more common)

- (Tokyo) わし [wàshí] (Heiban – [0])[2]
- IPA(key): [ɰᵝa̠ɕi]
Pronoun
儂 • (washi)
- (mainly Western Japan) I, me
Usage notes
The term is a regular pronoun in Western Japan, used primarily by men in most regions. Depending on the region, it may be used mainly by the elderly, which is especially true for women using it, and becoming more true as usage of local variants declines in younger generations. Its use is often considered stereotypical of old people in Japanese media and is frequently used in TV shows and comics to emphasize the age of characters. However, it may also simply be used to emphasize the character as hailing from Kansai.
More commonly spelled 私, or in kana to make the reading explicit.
Etymology 2
