The Japanese word 箱 (はこ/hako) means "box" in Portuguese. This word is composed of two kanji characters: the first one, 竹 (たけ/take), which means "bamboo", and the second one, 箱 (はこ/hako), which means "box". The etymology of this word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when boxes were made of woven bamboo and were used to store food and other objects.
