Explanation and Etymology - (歌手) kashu
"歌手" is a Japanese word that means "singer" or "female singer". The word is composed of two kanji characters: "歌" (ka) which means "song" and "手" (shu) which means "person". The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when singers were known as "uta-awase", meaning "singing competitors".
