確か

Japanese

Etymology

Kanji in this term
たし
Grade: 5
kun’yomi
Alternative spelling
慥か (uncommon)

From Old Japanese. First attested in the Nihon Shoki of 720 CE.[1]

Derived from the tashi- element seen in たしに (tashi ni, sufficiently; firmly; surely) and たしない (tashinai, difficult, agonizing; poor, lacking) + adjective-forming suffix (-ka).[1]

Pronunciation

  • (Tokyo) [táꜜshìkà] (Atamadaka – [1])[2][3][4]
  • IPA(key): [ta̠ɕi̥ka̠]

Adjective

(たし) (tashika) -na (adnominal (たし)かな (tashika na), adverbial (たし)かに (tashika ni))

  1. [from 720] certain, clear, without a doubt
  2. [from 759] secure, reliable, able to be trusted completely

Inflection

Synonyms

  • (certain): 確実(かくじつ) (kakujitsu), ()てになる (ate ni naru)

Adverb

(たし) (tashika) 

  1. if I remember correctly, in my memory, probably but not totally sure
    (たし)、ここに()たことがある。
    Tashika, koko ni kita koto ga aru.
    I'm pretty sure that I've come here before.

Usage notes

Adverbial use without the particle (ni) is colloquial. The meaning for this usage implies a degree of doubt, and is different from the certainly, surely sense of 確か (tashika ni) that has no such implication.
