polite; courteous; considerate; attentive
Obsolete term for being polite, courteous, and attentive. Not used in modern Japanese; encountered only in historical texts.
In an old document, it says 'polite hospitality'.
The exact derivation is uncertain; the kanji 懇 (sincere) and 到 (arrive) suggest a meaning of thorough sincerity, but the word is obsolete and its historical origin is unclear.
