Explanation and Etymology - (長) osa
The Japanese word 長 (chou) is a kanji that can be translated as "long" or "leader". Its etymology goes back to the ancient Chinese character that represented a long object, such as a staff or rod. Over time, the meaning has evolved to include the concept of leadership or authority, possibly due to the use of staffs as symbols of power in some ancient cultures. In the Japanese language, 長 is often used in compound words to indicate something that is long or extended, such as 長い (nagai) meaning "long" or 長さ (nagasa) meaning "length". It can also be found in terms related to leadership, such as 長官 (choukan) meaning "department head" or 長老 (chourou) meaning "elder" or "senior leader".How to Write in Japanese - (長) osa
