Explanation and Etymology - (新) shin
"Shin" (新) is a Japanese word that means "new". It is composed of a single kanji character, which is formed by three parts: the radical "立" (tatsu), which means "to stand"; the radical "斤" (kin), which means "axe"; and the radical "亲" (shin), which means "relative". The combination of these radicals suggests the idea of "cutting the old and standing with the new", that is, of renewal and change. The word "shin" is used in various contexts, such as to refer to a newly launched product, the beginning or start of something, or a person who has just arrived at a place.How to Write in Japanese - (新) shin
