The word Tsunami is derived from two Japanese words

Tsu(big) and nami(flow)
Tsu(harbour) and nami(wave)
Tsu(big wave) and nami(wave)
None of these

The correct answer is: C. Tsu(big wave) and nami(wave).

The word tsunami is derived from two Japanese words: tsu (big wave) and nami (wave). Tsunamis are a series of large waves in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, generally in an ocean or a large lake. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including detonations, landslides, glacier calvings, meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water) above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami.

Tsunamis can cause devastating effects on coastal areas, including loss of life, damage to infrastructure and the environment. The most destructive tsunamis in recent history include the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, which killed more than 230,000 people, and the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, which killed more than 18,000 people.

Tsunamis are a natural hazard that can occur anywhere in the world. It is important to be aware of the risks and to take precautions to protect yourself and your family in the event of a tsunami.
