Etymology

|
This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “The NKD entry traces this to itibi + ko instead, which is reasonable considering the superficial similarities between the ichibi plant and the various things called ichigo over history.”
|
The kanji spelling is an orthographic borrowing from Middle Chinese 蓬虆 (buŋ liuɪ).
