Usage notes
- Because administrative or military documents were usually written in Classical Chinese, the word is also commonly attested in the Hanja form in what are otherwise wholly Classical Chinese texts.
- Although commonly attested into the early sixteenth century, the word was totally forgotten by Early Modern Korean. In 1674, the Korean king encountered this word in a fifteenth-century source and inquired as to whether it might be the name of a specific location. A minister responded: "As the language of the past and present are greatly disparate, your servant too does not know the details of what the word might mean, but it is clearly not a place name."[1]
