| Jul 16, 2019 at 13:57 | comment | added | Tuomo | Thanks! I tried to see if I similarly get a 号 and 合 as options when typing in こう instead of ごう but that didn't seem to work. I can't come up with any place where 側 would be pronounces as かわ but I believe you | |
| Jul 16, 2019 at 13:54 | comment | added | naruto | @Tuomo In modern Japanese, the kun-reading of 側 is almost always がわ, but it used to be read also as かわ. We still say こちらっ側 (こちらっかわ), etc. | |
| Jul 16, 2019 at 13:50 | comment | added | Tuomo | Yes, I fixed my comment for the 姫路 part, sorry for reading your post badly. I guess you are probably also right about the 側 (although I wonder why I get it as one of the options when typing in かわ on my keyboard and searching for the kanjis) | |
| Jul 16, 2019 at 13:46 | comment | added | naruto | @Tuomo 側 is inherently voiced even without rendaku (e.g., 彼の側【がわ】に立つ). | |
| Jul 16, 2019 at 13:42 | comment | added | Tuomo | But, for 片 you still say かたがわ (片側) so also for 片 there seem to be exceptions. | |
