Explanation and Etymology - (民俗) minzoku
民俗 (Minzoku) is a Japanese word composed of two kanjis: 民 (min) which means "people" or "people" and 俗 (zoku) which means "custom" or "tradition". Together, these kanjis form the meaning of "folklore" or "popular traditions". The etymology of the word 民俗 dates back to the Meiji period (1868-1912), when Japan went through a process of modernization and westernization. During this period, many popular traditions and customs were set aside in favor of the adoption of western values and practices. The word 民俗 was created to preserve and study these popular traditions that were being lost. Nowadays, the word 民俗 is used to refer to a wide variety of Japanese popular traditions, such as festivals, dances, music, legends, short stories and crafts. The study of Japanese folklore is an important academic research area and is often used as a way of understanding Japan's culture and history.How to Write in Japanese - (民俗) minzoku
