Explanation and Etymology - (付く) tsuku
付く (つく) is a Japanese verb meaning "to be attached", "to be connected", "to be added", "to be fixed" or "to be bound". The word is composed of the kanji 付 (tsu) meaning "to attach" or "to add" and く (ku) which is a suffix that indicates the action of becoming something. The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the Japanese language began to develop and differentiate itself from Chinese. The word 付く was created from the combination of two Chinese kanji, which were adapted to the Japanese language. Nowadays, the word 付く is widely used in different contexts, such as in phrases like "付け加える" (tsukekaeru) which means "to add" or "to include", "付属する" (fuzoku suru) which means "to be attached" or " to be linked", and "付き合う" (tsukiau) which means "going out with someone" or "having a relationship with someone".How to Write in Japanese - (付く) tsuku
