Explanation and Etymology - (書斎) shosai

書斎 is a Japanese word composed of two kanji: 書 (sho) which means "write" or "book" and 斎 (sai) which can have different meanings such as "study room", "meditation room" or "ceremony room". Together, these kanji form the term that can be translated as "office" or "study room". The word is often used to refer to a space reserved for study or intellectual work in a home or office. The complete etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when Japanese nobles built special rooms for study and poetry writing. From the Edo period (1603-1868), the word began to be used more frequently to refer to a private space for study and intellectual work.
