Sensei
"Sensei" is a Japanese word that is often used to refer to a teacher, master, or expert in various fields of study, such as medicine, education, martial arts, music, calligraphy, among others. In Japanese, the word "sensei" is composed of the characters "先" (saki), which means "before," "guess," or "predict," and "生" (sei), which means "life" or "to be born." Together, these characters can be interpreted as "one who was born before," "one with experience," or "one who guides life." These professionals are highly respected in Japanese culture.
