Explanation and Etymology - (茶) cha
茶 (ちゃ) is a Japanese word that means "tea". The word is composed of the characters 艹, which represents grass, and 木, which represents tree. It is believed that the origin of the word is related to the Tang dynasty in China, where tea was called "cha" or "tea of leaves". The word was introduced to Japan during the Heian period (794-1185) by Buddhist monks who brought the drink from China. Since then, tea has become an important part of Japanese culture, being served in traditional ceremonies and consumed daily at home and at work.How to Write in Japanese - (茶) cha
