Explanation and Etymology - (持続) jizoku
持続 It is a Japanese word composed of two Kanji: 持 (ji) which means "hold" or "maintain" and 続 (zoku) which means "continuing" or "proceed". Therefore, it can be translated as "continuity" or "maintenance". A palavra é frequentemente usada em contextos relacionados à sustentabilidade, como "desenvolvimento sustentável" (持続可能な開発, jizokukanou na kaihatsu) ou "energia sustentável" (持続可能なエネルギー, jizokukanou na enerugii). The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the term 持続 was first used in a Buddhist text to refer to the practice of maintaining a constant mind during meditation. Since then, the word has been used in various contexts to refer to the idea of maintaining something for a long period of time.How to Write in Japanese - (持続) jizoku
