Explanation and Etymology - (釜) kama
The Japanese word "釜" (かま) means "cauldron" in English. It is composed of the characters "火" meaning "fire" and "甫" meaning "mouth". The origin of the word dates back to the Nara period (710-794), when the cauldron was an important utensil in Japanese cuisine. The cauldron was used to cook rice, soups and other dishes in large quantities. Nowadays, the cauldron is mainly used in traditional ceremonies, such as the New Year festival, where it is used to cook "ozoni", a rice soup with vegetables and chicken. The word "釜" is also used in idioms such as "釜飯" (かまめし), which means "rice cooked in a cauldron" and is used to describe a simple, home-cooked meal.How to Write in Japanese - (釜) kama
