“The Japanese word shokunin
is defined by both Japanese and Japanese-English dictionaries as
'craftsman' or 'artisan,' but such a literal description does not fully
express the deeper meaning. ... It means craftsmanship, however it is
much more than that
The literal meaning of Monozukuri is 'production'. 'Mono' is the thing which is made and 'Zukuri' means the act of making but Monozukuri implies more than simply making things. It can be best compared to the word 'craftsmanship' in English.
