Explanation and Etymology - (法) hou
The Japanese word "法" (hō) means "law" or "rule". It is composed of two kanji elements: "水" (mizu), which means "water", and "去" (kyo), which means "to leave". The combination of these two elements represents the idea of "water flowing away", symbolizing the idea of following a path or an established rule. The word "hō" is often used in legal contexts, such as in "hōritsu" (law) or "hōteki" (legal). In addition, it can also be used in broader contexts, such as "buddhahō" (the law of the Buddha) or "karma no hō" (the law of karma).How to Write in Japanese - (法) hou
