Explicación y Etimología - (先に) sakini

先に It is a Japanese word that can be translated as "before" or "first". It is composed of the kanjis 先, which means "before" or "front", and に, which is a particle that indicates direction or destination. The word can be used in various situations, such as phrases like "I will do this before" (これ先先やります) or "You can go ahead" (先行っもいいですですよ). The etymology of the word goes back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the Japanese language began to develop. Kanji 先 already existed in the Chinese language and was adopted by the Japanese to represent the concept of "before". The particle に also already existed in the old Japanese tongue and was used to indicate direction or destination. Over time, the combination of the two elements has become a common expression in the Japanese language.
