Explanation and Etymology - (けれど) keredo
けれど is an adversative conjunction in Japanese that means "but", "however", "however". It is formed by the junction of the Kanji 気 (ke) and 力 (redo), which together can be interpreted as "willpower". The origin of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when it was written as けれとも (keretomo) and meant "even though it is like that". Over time, the word was simplified to けれど (keredo) and began to be used as an adversative conjunction to express an idea contrary to the previous one.How to Write in Japanese - (けれど) keredo
