⟨pi1tuzi⟩ → */pʲituzi//ɸituzi//çitsudʑi/

From Old Japanese.[1] Further derivation unknown. Theories include:

  • From (hi, sun) +‎ つじ (tsuji, crossroads), as the sun begins to set around the hour of the Sheep according to traditional Chinese timekeeping.
  • Alteration from ひげ (hige, facial hair) +‎ (tsu, Old Japanese possessive particle) +‎ うし (ushi, cattle).
  • Alteration from ひと (hito, person) +‎ うし (ushi, cattle), literally “people’s cattle”.
  • Alteration from やしなえ (hitasu, to raise (cattle)) +‎ しし (shishi, a beast used for its meat) or やしなえ (hitashi, the 連用形れんようけい (ren'yōkei, stem or continuative form) of やしなえ) +‎ うし (ushi, cattle). If true, would parallel the supposed development of やぎ (yagi) from 野牛やぎゅう (yagyū, wild cattle), referring to the relative ease of domestication of sheep.[2]
