The meaning of Konichiwa
Japanese greet each other with the word “Konichiwa”. This word is also related to the Sun. Japanese sometimes refer to the Sun as Konichi-sama. So saying “Konichiwa”to someone is like saying, “Hi Sun.” This comes from the traditional concept of Japanese being descendents of the Sun.
日本人见面打呼时说“Konichiwa”，这个词也和太阳有关。日本人有时称太阳为“Konichi-sama”，所以说“Konichi-sama”就像在说“嗨，太阳”一样。日本传统思想认为每个人都是太阳的分身。
