Explanation and Etymology - (向こう) mukou
向こう is a Japanese word that can be translated as "on the other side", "beyond" or "over there". The word is composed of two kanji: 向, which means "direction" or "guidance", and こう, which can be translated as "side" or "part". The etymology of the word goes back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the term was used to refer to the opposite side of a river or mountain. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to include anything that is on the other side of a physical or metaphorical barrier. Nowadays, the word is commonly used in expressions such as 向こう側 (mukou-gawa), which means "the other side", and 向こう見える (mukou-mieru), which can be translated as "visible from the other side". The word is also often used in informal conversation to indicate a distant or inaccessible place.How to Write in Japanese - (向こう) mukou
