天主

Chinese

Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value)

Etymology

First attested in True Meaning of the Lord of Heaven (《天主實錄》), completed by Italian Jesuit priest and missionary Michele Ruggieri in 1584 (Wang, 2012), as a semantic readaptation of Chinese 天主 (Tiānzhǔ, “heavenly emperor; heavenly God”).

Note Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value) is earliest attested in Japanese no later than 1581. The coinage of 天主 (Tiānzhǔ, “God”) in Chinese and Japanese around the same time may or may not be coincidental.
