Kàngrì

Kàngrì (Chinese: 抗日; Wade–Giles: kʻang4jih4; lit. 'resist Japan'; Korean: 항일; RR: hangil) is a Chinese word, which means "resisting Japan", in the context of resisting Japanese imperialism Kàngrì may be translated as "anti-Japan", though it is distinct from fǎnrì (Chinese: 反日; Wade–Giles: fan3jih4; lit. 'anti-Japan'; Korean: 반일; RR: banil), which refers to more general anti-Japanese sentiment.

Kàngrì is deeply related to the post-colonial East Asia, such as China and Korea; especially Second Sino-Japanese War (中國抗日戰爭; 'War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression') and Korean independence movement (항일운동; 抗日運動; lit. 'Movement to Resistance against Japan').
