Etymology
Sino-Korean word from 歲拜, from 歲 (“year, year of age”) + 拜 (“to do obeisance to, to make a courtesy call”). The modern Standard Chinese equivalent is 拜年 (bàinián).
Pronunciation
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈsʰe̞(ː)bɛ] ~ [ˈsʰe̞(ː)be̞]
- Phonetic hangul: [세(ː)배/세(ː)베]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
