Explanation and Etymology - (荷) ni
荷 (に) means "cargo" in Japanese. It is a kanji composed of three parts: the upper part represents a plant, the middle part represents a person carrying something on their back, and the lower part represents a hand holding something. The full etymology of the word goes back to ancient Chinese, where the character originally represented a plant carried on a person's back. Over time, the meaning evolved to include anything that could be carried on the back or carried. In Japan, kanji is often used in transportation-related words, such as 荷物 (nimotsu), which means "luggage".How to Write in Japanese - (荷) ni
