In its etymology, 「会」 has deep roots in ancient Chinese, where it also has similar meanings related to meetings or assemblies. In Japanese, in addition to representing the act of meeting or gathering, this kanji is commonly used in a variety of word combinations that denote social events, meetings, or associations.
The kanji 「会」 can be found in words like 「会社」 (kaisha), which means company or business, and 「会話」 (kaiwa), which refers to conversation or dialogue. These variations illustrate how the idea of gathering or communication is central to the use of this character.
