Explanation and Etymology - (黒) kuro
The Japanese word 黒 (kuro) means "black" in Portuguese. The etymology of the word dates back to ancient Chinese, where the corresponding word was written as "heuk" or "hak". The word was imported to Japan during the Tang dynasty (618-907) and was adapted to the Japanese writing system. The word is often used in Japanese idiomatic expressions and proverbs, such as 黒い霧 (kuroi kiri), which means "black fog", and 黒字 (kuroji), which means "profit".
