Vietnamese
Etymology
First attested in 1479 in Đại Việt sử ký toàn thư, in chữ Hán form 大瞿越.
Momoki (2014) proposes that 大瞿越 (Đại Cồ Việt) & 瞿越 (Cồ Việt) are likely based on 鉅越 & 巨越 (Cự Việt) in 12th-century Lý dynasty's inscriptions instead of the nation's 10th-century name, as the form 大越 (Đại Việt) had been attested earlier in 10th-century brick inscriptions.[1]
Pronunciation
Proper noun
- Đại Cồ Việt, the official name for the Vietnamese nation between the rule of Đinh Bộ Lĩnh (r. 968-979) and the rule of Lý Thánh Tông (r. 1054-1072).
