Explanation and Etymology - (奥) oku
奥 (おく) It is a Japanese word that can have different meanings depending on the context in which it is used. The word is made up of two kanjis: 奥 (oku) which means "inner" or "deeper part" and can be used to refer to a building, a forest or even the feelings of a person. The word can also be used as a prefix to indicate something that is "deep" or "complex", as in 奥深い (okubukai) which means "deep" or "intricate". Also, 奥 can also be used as a Japanese surname. The etymology of the word 奥 dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the word was written with kanji 極 (kiwameru), which means "extreme" or "maximum". Over time, the writing of the word has changed to 奥, but the original meaning of "extreme" or "maximum" is still preserved in some compound words, such as 奥義 (ogi) which means "secret technique" or "maximum secret".How to Write in Japanese - (奥) oku
