Explanation and Etymology - (選手) senshu
"選手" is a Japanese word composed of two Kanji: 選 (sen) which means "to select" and 手 (shu) which means "hand". Together, they form the meaning of "athlete" or "player". The word is often used to refer to professional or amateur sportsmen in various sports. The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when samurais practiced martial arts as a form of military training. Over time, these practices evolved into sports and the word "選手" began to be used to refer to practitioners of these activities.How to Write in Japanese - (選手) senshu
