There are two arguments that the origin of 'Tae(따 지)' can not be known and 'dal(달).’ I agree with the argument that the 'dal(달)’ is the root. The evidence was found in the Di(地) in Archaic Chinese. rThe reading in the Archaic Chinese was the 'dal(달).’ This 'dal(地)’ has turned into a tha(따 땅) and a ji(지) This is because of the following reasons. the first, If you refer to the ‘diwə̅t(달) of jengnu mulbu(定紐 物部)’ in Archaic Chinese, you would have read it as ‘dal(달)' at some point in the appeal. The second, pronunciations of ‘dal(地)'make a change tha(따), which reflects the Chinese word of loss of the sound of the entrance. Third, ‘Ji(地)' of ‘ tha ji(따 지(地))' is a reflection pronunciation in medieval times ‘jengnu jibu(定紐 至部) di(地)’ of ‘di(地)'
