Explanation and Etymology - (捕鯨) hogei
Whaling is a Japanese word that means "whale hunting." It is composed of two kanji characters: 捕 (ho) which means "capture" and 鯨 (gei) which means "whale." Whale hunting is an ancient practice in Japan, dating back to the Jomon period (14,000 B.C. - 300 B.C.). However, modern commercial whaling began in the 19th century with the introduction of Western hunting techniques. Whale hunting is a controversial issue, with many marine conservation organizations opposing it due to the threat of extinction to some whale species.How to Write in Japanese - (捕鯨) hogei
