Explanation and Etymology - (一生懸命) ishouukenmei
一生懸命 is a Japanese word composed of three kanjis: 一 (ichi) means "one", 生 (I know) means "life" and 懸 (ken) means "suspend". Together they form the expression 一生懸命 (ISSHOUKENMEI), which can be translated as "with all the effort", "with all the dedication" or "with all the commitment". The origin of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when it was common to use expressions composed of three kanjis to convey complex ideas. In this context, it was used to describe the attitude of a samurai that fought with all its strength and skill, even knowing that it could lose life in battle. Over time, the expression was used in other contexts, such as work, studies and everyday life, to describe an attitude of determination and commitment. Nowadays, 一生懸命 is a very common word in Japan and is often used to encourage people to make the most of their activities. It is an expression that values perseverance, resilience and the will to overcome, and which reflects the Japanese culture of hard work and dedication.How to Write in Japanese - (一生懸命) ishouukenmei
