Explanation and Etymology - (胴) dou
The Japanese word 胴 (dou) means "trunk" or "body". It is composed of the characters 肉 (niku), which means "meat", and 冬 (fuyu), which means "winter". It is believed that the origin of the word is related to the fact that in winter people needed to warm up and protect their bodies, and thus came the idea of a garment that covered the torso. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to include the human body itself, as well as tree trunks and other cylindrical objects. The word 胴 is often used in contexts related to martial arts, such as kendo and judo, to refer to the central part of the body that is the target of attacks and defenses.How to Write in Japanese - (胴) dou
