This is "What is Women's Language?" (2023) by translator Kyoko Hirano.
The Japanese word for women is a product of the "aesthetics of gender" that is deeply rooted in the Japanese people. The author, who has been in contact with German and English for many years as a translator, examines the history and role of the Japanese language and breaks the spell of gender differences.
Starting from language, this book explores how we, who live language-based lives, are bound by words, and unravels the differences between men and women and the differences in language (Ammel).
