** 1996, Roberto DiCosmo with Vincent Danos, The Linear Logic Primer‎, Université de Paris VII, retrieved 2016-04-18, page 43:A natural deduction tree can be put in exact correspondence with typed λ-calculus (that can be considered as just a notation for such deductions), and the cut-elimination in Natural Deduction corresponds exactly to β-reduction in λ-calculus.

# 下駄
## Japanese

Kanji in this term :
| 下 | 駄 |
| げ Grade: 1 | た Grade: S |
| on'yomi ||
* Alternative spelling
* ゲタ

### Etymology

A surface analysis suggests a Japanese coinage of Middle Chinese-derived components, as a compound of 下 (ge, “lower; under”) +‎ 駄 (ta, “loading; carrying; footwear”).
Historical usage suggests a shift from older term 足駄 (ashida, “clogs”, later, referring more specifically to “tall clogs” in contrast to the “short clogs” referenced by the term geta), itself deriving from 足 (ashi, “foot”) + 板 (ita, “board”) from the even older practice of wearing flat pieces of wood on one's feet when working in the paddies to keep from sinking into the mud, similar in principle to snowshoes. This latter footwear persisted in use into the 20th century as 田下駄 (ta-geta, literally “paddy geta”).
The historical derivation indicates that the 駄 character's “footwear” sense, which is specific to Japanese and is not found in Chinese sources, could have arisen from phonetic ateji (当て字) usage in the terms ashida and geta.

### Pronunciation

* (Tokyo) げた [gètá] (Heiban – [0])
* IPA: [ɡe̞ta̠]

### Noun

下(げ)駄(た) • (geta)
* geta: a kind of wooden clog with at least one, more commonly two, stilts or “teeth”
* the geta symbol, 〓 (Unicode value 3013): a typographic mark indicating unavailability of a glyph, such as when a character cannot be displayed on a computer; so called for the similarity to a geta clog footprint
* (go) a stone placed not adjacent to the opponent's stone, but in such a way as to block the opponent's formation from escaping

#### Derived terms

* 日(ひ)和(より)下(げ)駄(た) (hiyori geta): low geta clogs for sunny weather
* 塗(ぬ)り下(げ)駄(た) (nuri geta): lacquered geta clogs
* 下(げ)駄(た)記(き)号(ごう) (geta kigō): the geta symbol, 〓 (Unicode value 3013)

#### Descendants

* Korean: 겨다 (gyeoda)
