Explanation and Etymology - (横断) oudan
横断 (koudan) is a Japanese word composed of two kanji: 横 (yoko) meaning "horizontal" and 断 (dan) meaning "cut" or "separation". Together they form the meaning of "cross horizontally" or "cut horizontally". This word is often used to describe the action of crossing a street, a bridge, or any other horizontal structure. It can also be used in a figurative sense, such as "getting through a difficult situation" or "cutting off a conversation". The word 横断 originates from ancient Chinese, where the characters 横 and 断 were used separately to describe the action of cutting horizontally. Over time, they were combined to form the word 横断, which was adopted by the Japanese language.How to Write in Japanese - (横断) oudan
