/kauri/ → /kɔːri/ → /koːri/

From Old Japanese, in turn from Middle Chinese 行李 (MC haeng liX, “baggage, luggage”). First cited in Japanese in a section of the 続日本紀 (Shoku Nihongi) dated to 706.^[1]

• (Tokyo) こーり (Atamadaka – )^[2][3][4]
• IPA^(key):

行(こう)李(り) • (-kōri) ^{←かうり (kauri)?}

1. used to count items of luggage, cargo, or freight: box, bundle, item, bale, package

More commonly encountered with the shortened reading kori.^[1][2][4]

行(こう)李(り) • (kōri) ^{←かうり (kauri)?}

1. a wicker trunk used as luggage, with a lid that slides down over the top, generally made of bamboo, willow, or wisteria

   Synonym: 葛籠 (tsuzura, more general term for any wicker basket or box)

2. a messenger, an envoy

   Synonym: 使者 (shisha)

3. luggage, baggage (what one takes on a trip to contain one's possessions)

   Synonym: 荷物 (nimotsu)

4. a trip, a voyage (by extension from the luggage sense)

   Synonyms: 旅 (tabi), 旅行 (ryokō)

5. (historical) in the former Japanese army, the unit tasked with transporting materiel and supplies: military logistics

/kɔːri/ → /kori/

Analyzable as a shortening of the kōri reading. First cited in 1523.^[5]

• (Tokyo) こり (Atamadaka – )^[2][3][4]
• IPA^(key):

行(こ)李(り) • (-kori) 

1. used to count items of luggage, cargo, or freight: box, bundle, item, bale, package

行(こ)李(り) • (kori) 

1. a bundle of one or more pieces of luggage secured with rope or cord
2. a wicker trunk used as luggage, with a lid that slides down over the top, generally made of bamboo, willow, or wisteria

   Synonym: 葛籠 (tsuzura, more general term for any wicker basket or box)

Shift from earlier kōri reading to adopt the tō-on reading for the initial 行 character. May be either a later re-borrowing from Chinese, or influenced by later changes in Chinese pronunciation.

First attested in the 1230s.^[6]

This reading is not included in various dictionaries^[2][3][4] and may be obsolete.

• (Tokyo) あんり (Atamadaka – )
• IPA^(key):
