ヲハコベ
Ainu「津浪山づみ」
ohakopemedium
Batchelor explicitly gives Ohakobe for a tidal wave or tsunami, supporting ohakope with modern p. Hirayama gives the same comparison. The inherited “water crossing a hill” explanation does not independently establish an o-ha-ko-pe etymology. The added 山づみ wording in the current gloss remains visible and is not explained by the dictionary’s simpler 津浪 sense.
