Etymology
Sino-Korean word from 외온(外溫) (oe'on, “ecto-”) + 동물(動物) (dongmul, “animal”).
Pronunciation
- (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈwe̞(ː)o̞n to̞(ː)ŋmuɭ] ~ [ˈø̞(ː)o̞n to̞(ː)ŋmuɭ]
- Phonetic hangul: [웨(ː)온 동(ː)물/외(ː)온 동(ː)물]
- Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
