Explanation and Etymology - (休学) kyuugaku
休学 is a Japanese word that means "suspension of studies". The word is composed of two Kanji: 休 (kyuu) which means "rest" or "pause" and 学 (gaku) which means "study" or "learning". The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when the Japanese educational system was based on the Chinese system of imperial examinations. During this period, students who did not pass these exams were required to interrupt their studies for a period of time before trying again. Over time, the term 休学 came to be used to refer to any period of suspension of studies, whether by choice or by external circumstances.How to Write in Japanese - (休学) kyuugaku
