Osumi Tsuki (Certified)
Jan 12, 2017 09:54
Yesterday I talked about the Japanese term "origami tsuki".
Today I will talk about the Japanese term "osumi tsuki", which is a little similar to the yesterday's one.
The literal meaning is "attached ink", and it means that something is accepted or guaranteed by a person in authority.
Originally, this term meant a document related to an acceptance or a guarantee of domains made by a general or a vassal lord in the Edo period.
Here, kao (written seal mark) is used as a signing, and it was written by sumi (ink).
Therefore, the document was called "osumi tsuki" (attached ink), and it came to have the current meaning.
By the way, basically "origami tsuki" is used for a thing, while "osumi tsuki" is used for a person.

お墨付き
昨日は「折り紙つき」という言葉を紹介しました。
今日はそれと少し似ている、「お墨付き」という言葉を紹介します。
「お墨付き」とは、権力のある人の承諾や保証があることを意味します。
元々この言葉は、江戸時代の将軍や大名が作った、領地の許可や保証に関する文書を指しました。
ここで、署名として使われた「花押」は、墨で記されていたことから、その文書は「お墨付き」と言われるようになり、現在の意味を持つようになりました。
ちなみに、基本的に「折り紙つき」は「物」に対して、「お墨付き」は「人」に対して用いられます。
