Explanation and Etymology - (演劇) engeki
演劇 (engeki) is a Japanese word that means "theater" or "drama". The word is composed of two Kanji: 演 (en), which means "to perform" or "to execute", and 劇 (geki), which means "drama" or "play". The etymological origin of the word dates back to the Meiji period (1868-1912), when Western theater began to be introduced in Japan. The word was created by combining Chinese Kanji that represent the concepts of "performance" and "drama", adapted to Japanese pronunciation. Since then, 演劇 has become a common term to refer to all forms of theater, including traditional Japanese theater, such as kabuki and noh, as well as Western theater.How to Write in Japanese - (演劇) engeki
