謝 - Apologize
In old Japan, when you had to Apologize, you would bow and use careful Say, Words to a Somebody, as if you were measuring the weight of your respect with a Measurement stick. The idea was that an apology wasn’t just words but a precise cultural ritual—like adjusting the exact angle of your bow so it measured your sincerity.
