Explanation and Etymology - (探検) tanken

"探検" is a Japanese word that means "exploration". The first part of the word, "探", means "to search" or "to investigate", while the second part, "検", means "to examine" or "to inspect". The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when Japan was isolated from the rest of the world and there was great curiosity about what lay beyond its borders. The word was created by combining kanji (Chinese ideograms) that represented the actions of searching and examining, to describe the activity of exploring new territories. Since then, the word has been used to refer to any type of exploration, from the exploration of unknown lands to the exploration of new ideas or concepts.
