舞蹈 is the clearest way to express the art of dancing in Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
If you are a dancer or love the art of dance, this is the calligraphy selection for you.
Dance
舞 is the simplest way to write dance in Chinese, Japanese Kanji, and old Korean Hanja.
It can also be translated as to dance, to wield, to brandish, or to circle.
舞 reads more clearly as dance in Chinese than it does in Japanese (see our two-character word for dancing if you want to be absolutely clear in both languages).
Dance
舞踊 is the most proper term for dance or dancing in Japanese.
The first Kanji means “dance,” and the second means to jump or leap. Together, they are just a strong way to say “dance” (the second Kanji just clarifies the first - nobody will translate this as “dance jumping”).
