Readings

Compounds

Etymology 1

絆 (kizuna): bond between people between family or relationship.
Kanji in this term
絆
きずな
Jinmeiyō
kun’yomi

/kiduna/ → /kid͡zuna/ → /kizuna/

Likely from Old Japanese, first attested in the Wamyō Ruijushō (938 CE).

The final -zuna is definitely from 綱 (tsuna, “rope”), while the initial ki- remains uncertain.

The more positive connotation of "bond" is attested in The Tale of the Heike (c. 1330).
