Derived from the Japanese words "kai" (change) and "zen" (good),
Kaizen means improvement, good change.
No Kaizen implies a mindset of complacency or a belief that things are already perfect, hindering progress and innovation; in English, BUT, No in Japanese means, of, when translated to English, Making the term, Know No Kaizen, a linguistic "False Friend" paradox.
False Friends (in Language): These are words in one language that look or sound similar to words in another language, but have different meanings. Like the word, No
The words Know and No are homonyms. Which is when two words sound the same in the same language but have different spellings and meanings.
A FALSE FRIEND PARADOX arises when a situation APPEARS to present a contradiction or inconsistency, but closer examination reveals that the apparent contradiction is due to a misunderstanding or misapplication of the concepts involved.
Essentially, it's a type of paradox where the elements involved seem to be "false friends" in the sense that they have similar names or appearances but different meanings or implications.
Just like the term itself, false friends, has more than one meaning
