Explanation and Etymology - (名高い) nadakai
The Japanese word "名高い" is composed of two kanji characters: "名" which means "name" or "fame" and "高い" which means "high" or "elevated". Together, they form the adjective "meitakai" which can be translated as "famous" or "renowned". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the Japanese nobility highly valued fame and reputation. At that time, the word "meitakai" was used to describe the fame and reputation of a person or place. Over time, the word came to be used to describe anything that was famous or renowned, such as a work of art, a book, or a restaurant. Today, the word "meitakai" is commonly used to describe people, places, or things that are widely recognized for their excellence or prestige. For example, a renowned chef may be described as "meitakai no ryouriya" (renowned chef), or an ancient temple may be described as "meitakai no jinja" (famous shrine).How to Write in Japanese - (名高い) nadakai
