Explanation and Etymology - (踊る) odoru
The Japanese word "踊る" (odoru) is composed of the characters "踊" meaning "to dance" and "る" which is a verb suffix that indicates action in progress. Therefore, "odoru" means "to be dancing" or "to dance". The etymology of the word goes back to the Heian period (794-1185), when dancing was an important form of entertainment at the imperial court. The word "odoru" was originally written with the character "舞" meaning "dance", but it was replaced by the character "踊" in the Edo period (1603-1868) to emphasize the energetic and lively nature of the dance. Currently, "odoru" is a common word in the Japanese vocabulary and is often used in contexts related to music, dance and celebrations.How to Write in Japanese - (踊る) odoru
