What 禫 means
It names the formal rite that ends mourning. The mourner removes mourning clothes and resumes ordinary ancestral observances; 禫祭 names this ceremony.
The classical Chinese ritual manual 儀禮 places 禫 after 小祥 and 大祥, with an intervening month (“中月而禫”). The character dictionary 說文解字 glosses 禫 as the sacrifice marking the removal of mourning clothes.
How does 禫 appear in Korean ritual records?
Korean ritual records call it 담제 in the Joseon period. It follows 大祥 and the intervening month, closing the mourning sequence before the household returns to ordinary life.
Classical and ceremonial; it points to mourning rites, not casual conversation.
It names a mourning rite, so it reads as a ceremony label rather than personal sympathy.
