===Etymology===
{{rfe|zh|see talk}}
; “and; with”
: {{zh-ref|Zhao (2018)}} suggests that ''hàn'' and ''hài'' may ultimately derive from the contractions of {{zh-l|還有}} in colloquial speech. On the other hand, {{zh-ref|Yu (1988)}} and {{zh-ref|Jiang (2012)}} argue ''hàn'' and ''hài'' derive from {{zh-l|喚|to call}}.
; “Japanese”
: {{obor|zh|ja|-}} {{ja-r|和|^やまと}}. The original character was a replacement for earlier {{ja-r|倭|^わ}} in 757 CE with a character that sounded similar in contemporary pronunciations of Chinese, 和, due to the offensive meaning of 倭.

===Etymology 1===
{{ja-kanjitab|わ|yomi=goon}}
{{wikipedia|Wa (Japanese)}}
From {{der|ja|ltc|-}} {{ltc-l|和|id=1|harmonious}}.

The “Japan” sense appears during the reign of {{w|Empress Genmei}} (707–715 {{CE}}), as this character {{ja-r|和|^わ}} was chosen as a homophone with a more favorable meaning to replace the previous character {{ja-r|倭|^わ}} then in use as the kanji name for Japan<ref name="DJR"/> (see the etymology at {{ja-r|大和|^やまと}} for more details). The “Japan” sense was usually read with a {{glink/ja|kun'yomi}} of ''yamato'', until some time in the {{w|Muromachi period}}, when the {{glink/ja|go'on}} reading of ''Wa'' became more common.<ref name="KDJ">{{R:Kokugo Dai Jiten}}</ref>
