Explanation and Etymology - (字) aza
The word "字" is a Chinese character which means "character" or "letter". Its etymology dates back to the Shang Dynasty period (1600-1046 BC), when Chinese characters were written in animal bones or turtle carapaces. The word "字" was used to refer to these written characters, which were used to record important information, such as oracles and records of sacrifices. Over time, Chinese writing has evolved and became more complex, but the word "字" continued to be used to refer to any written character. Nowadays, the word "字" is used in many different contexts, from formal writing to informal writing, and is a fundamental element of Chinese culture.How to Write in Japanese - (字) aza
