Explanation and Etymology - (世辞) seji

世辞 is a Japanese word composed of two Kanji: 世 (yo) which means "world" or "society" and 辞 (ji) which means "words" or "speech". Together, they form the meaning of "praise" or "flattery". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the nobles of the imperial court used the art of rhetoric to praise each other in poems and speeches. Over time, the practice spread to other spheres of society, becoming a form of courtesy and diplomacy. Nowadays, the word is used to refer to excessive or insincere praise.
