Explanation and Etymology - (隠居) inkyo

隠居 is a Japanese word that can be divided into two Kanji: 隠 (in) means "to hide" or "to conceal", while 居 (kyo) means "to be present" or "to reside". Together, these Kanji form the word 隠居 (inkyo), which refers to a person who has retired and lives a quiet and reclusive life, usually in a rural area. The word can also be used to refer to a hermit or a monk who has withdrawn from the world to seek spiritual enlightenment. The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the Japanese nobility began to retire in their older years and withdraw to the countryside. Since then, the word 隠居 has been used to describe those who choose to live a peaceful and isolated life.
