Explanation and Etymology - (武士) bushi

武士 is a Japanese word that means "warrior" or "samurai". The word is composed of two Kanji: 武, which means "military" or "warrior", and 士, which means "knight" or "man of honor". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when warriors were called "mononofu", but over time, the term "bushi" became more common. During the Edo period (1603-1868), samurais were a privileged class of warriors who served feudal lords and were known for their discipline, martial skills and code of honor. The word "bushi" is still used in modern Japan to refer to warriors or soldiers in general.
