ipa :/je/[Etymology 1]
edit/je/ → /e/From Old Japanese. The ye pronunciation merged with e in Early Middle Japanese. The merged sound was ye until the Edo period, which is found in Yedo, yen and Yebisu.This term was so representative of the ye reading that it lent its shape to the hentaigana 𛀁 (ye).
[Etymology 2]
edit/kau/ → /kɔː/ → /koː/From Middle Chinese 江 (MC kˠʌŋ).The 漢音 (kan'on) reading, so likely a later borrowing.
