Explanation and Etymology - (遅刻) chikoku
遅刻 It is a Japanese word that means "delay" or "arrive late". The first part of the word, 遅, means "delay" or "slow" while the second part, 刻, means "time" or "time". The word is made up of two kanjis, which are Chinese characters used in Japanese writing. The etymology of the word goes back to the Heian period (794-1185), when Chinese culture had great influence in Japan. At the time, the word was written with the kanjis 遲 and 刻, which were pronounced as "chikoku". Over time, the pronunciation changed to "chikoku" and later to "chikoku". Nowadays, the word 遅刻 is widely used in Japan in formal and informal contexts, such as at work, at school and in social situations. It is considered rude and disrespectful to come late in commitments in Japan, so the word 遅刻 is often used to refer to this inappropriate behavior.How to Write in Japanese - (遅刻) chikoku
