Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the URL-encoded Japanese term 'kakyuusei' (or more precisely 'koukousei' / 'kakyūsei' denoting lower-class/underclass student or high schooler depending on context, though URL-encoded 'kaky%c5%absei' corresponds to 'kakyuusei', meaning underclassman or junior student). The English equivalent 'high school student' combines 'high school' (from Middle English high and Old English scōl) with 'student' (from Latin studens).
