Explanation and Etymology - (世) yo
The Japanese word 世 (yo) means "world" or "generation". It is composed of the radical 一 (ichi), which means "one", and the radical 亻 (nin), which represents a person. Together, these radicals form the kanji 人 (hito), which means "person". The kanji 世 (yo) is formed by adding the radical 一 (ichi) above the kanji 人 (hito), which suggests the idea of "one world" or "one generation". The kanji can also be read as "sei" or "yo", depending on the context. In terms of etymology, the kanji 世 (yo) has its origins in ancient Chinese writing, being used since the Shang dynasty (1600-1046 BC).How to Write in Japanese - (世) yo
