Explanation and Etymology - (会館) kaikan
会館 (kaikan) is a Japanese word composed of two kanji: 会 (kai) meaning "meeting" or "gathering" and 館 (kan) meaning "building" or "establishment". Together they form the meaning of "meeting building" or "meeting establishment". This word is often used to refer to meeting places such as conference rooms, community centers, ballrooms, and so on. It can also be used to refer to associations or organizations that have their own building for their activities. The etymology of the word 会館 goes back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when Japan was under the rule of the Shoguns. At that time, samurai and other warrior classes met in buildings called yashiki to discuss political and military matters. Over time, these buildings became more sophisticated and began to be used for other types of meetings, such as religious ceremonies and cultural events. The word kaikan emerged in this context to designate these meeting buildings.How to Write in Japanese - (会館) kaikan
