Explanation and Etymology - (通す) toosu
The Japanese word "通す" (tōsu) consists of two kanjis: "通" (tsū) which means "pass" or "crossing" and "す" (SU) which is an auxiliary verb that indicates complete action or intensity. Together they form a verb that can be translated as "pass completely", "conclude" or "accomplish to the end". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the verb "通す" was used to describe the action of passing through a place or crossing a river. Over time, meaning has expanded to include the idea of completing a task or achieving a goal. Nowadays, "通す" is a common word in modern Japanese and can be used in a variety of contexts, from everyday expressions to more formal situations. For example, one can say "仕事を通す" (shigoto the tōsu) to indicate that a job or "試験通す" (Shiken Ni Tōsu) has been completed to indicate that it took place on an exam.How to Write in Japanese - (通す) toosu
