Explanation and Etymology - (遠慮) enryo

遠慮 (enryo) is a Japanese word that means "reserve", "modesty" or "restraint". The word is composed of two Kanji: 遠, which means "distant" or "far", and 慮, which means "consideration" or "concern". The word is often used to express the idea that someone is being cautious or hesitant in their actions or words, for fear of offending or bothering others. The origin of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when it was used to describe the attitude of a courtier who avoided offending the emperor. Since then, the word has been used in a variety of social and cultural contexts in Japan.
