しょうかい · shoukai · JLPT N4 · noun
introduction
🤝 紹 (bring together) + 介 (go between) = an introduction
紹 means to connect or bring together, and 介 means to stand between two parties. An introduction is exactly that: a go-between linking two people. Sound hook: shoukai starts like show, and you show one person to another.
