Explanation and Etymology - (木) ki
木 (き, ki) é uma palavra japonesa que significa "árvore" ou "madeira". Ela é composta pelo kanji (ideograma) 木, que representa um tronco com ramos e folhas. A etimologia da palavra remonta ao período Jomon (14.000 a.C. - 300 a.C.), quando os habitantes do Japão utilizavam a madeira para construir suas casas, ferramentas e utensílios. Desde então, a madeira tem sido um material importante na cultura japonesa, sendo utilizada em diversas áreas, como arquitetura, artesanato, mobiliário e papel. A palavra 木 é frequentemente utilizada em combinação com outros kanjis para formar palavras compostas, como 森 (もり, mori, floresta), 林 (はやし, hayashi, bosque) e 木材 (もくざい, mokuzai, madeira).How to Write in Japanese - (木) ki
