Explanation and Etymology - (言論) genron
言論 It is a Japanese word composed of two kanjis: 言 (generic to "speak" or "word") and 論 (meaning "discussion" or "argument"). Together they form the term 言論, which can be translated as "speech" or "freedom of expression". The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when Japan was under the control of the Tokugawa Xogunate. During this period, freedom of expression was limited and censorship was common. However, the idea that people should have the right to express their opinions freely began to gain strength between intellectuals and political activists. The term 言論 was coined in this context to refer to the importance of freedom of expression and the right of people to express their opinions without fear of retaliation. Since then, the word has been used in various contexts, including political debates, academic discussions and journalism.How to Write in Japanese - (言論) genron
