Explanation and Etymology - (文語) bungo
文語 It is a Japanese word composed of two kanjis: 文 (bun) which means "writing" or "culture" and 語 (go) which means "word" or "language". Together, it can be translated as "written language" or "literary style". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when Japanese literature flourished and writing became an art form. At that time, the Japanese language was written in two forms: "Kana" (Hiragana and Katakana) and "Kanji" (Chinese ideograms). The written form using Kanji was considered more formal and sophisticated, and was mainly used by nobles and writers. This form of writing was called "Bunpō" (文法), which means "written grammar". Over time, the term evolved into "bungo" (文語), which referred to the literary style used by writers of the time. Nowadays, the word "bungo" is used to refer to the literary style of the Heian era, as well as the Japanese language written in Kanji before the modernization of the tongue in the late nineteenth century.How to Write in Japanese - (文語) bungo
