Proto-Japanese: *dapara-
Altaic etymology: Altaic etymology
Meaning: soft
Russian meaning: мягкий
Old Japanese: japara-ka-
Middle Japanese: jáfárá- / jàfàra-
Tokyo: yawaráka-
Kyoto: yáwárákà-
Kagoshima: yawaraká-
Comments: JLTT 575. Accent is not quite clear: RJ has a variation; the adjective seems to point to low tone (and thus reconstructed in JLTT), but the noun *dapara (Tokyo yàwara, Kyoto yáwárá) presupposes rather *dápárá (but Kagoshima here also has yawará < *dà-).
