Explanation and Etymology - (器官) kikan
The Japanese word "器官" is composed of two kanji: "器" meaning "instrument" or "tool" and "官" meaning "organ" or "authority". Together, they form the term that refers to the organs of the human body or other living beings. The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when Chinese medicine began to be introduced to Japan. The word "器官" is a translation of the Chinese term "qìguān", which also means organ. Since then, the word has been used extensively in Japanese medicine and is commonly found in texts and conversations related to anatomy and physiology.How to Write in Japanese - (器官) kikan
