Etymology
editFrom Middle Chinese 海外 (xojX ngwajH, literally “sea + outside, beyond”). Compare modern Mandarin 海外 (hǎiwài).
Pronunciation
editNoun
edit海外 • (kaigai) ←かいぐわい (kaigwai)?
- the area beyond seas
- overseas, foreign countries
Usage notes
editAs Japan is an island nation, all other countries are “beyond seas”. This word is thus often used synonymously with 国際 (kokusai, “international”), 多国籍 (takokuseki, “multinational”) or 地球規模 (chikyūkibo, “global”).
