    建つ: built. The Japanese verb '建つ (たつ)' means 'to be built' or 'to be erected'. It is used to describe the construction or establishment of buildings, structures, or monuments. This verb is often used in the passive sense, indicating that something has been built or is standing. For example: A new building was built「新しい建物が建った」(あたらしいたてものがたった). The temple stands on the hill「その寺は丘の上に建つ」(そのてらはおかのうえにたつ). Note that '建つ' is an intransitive verb, meaning it does not take a direct object. The transitive counterpart, meaning 'to build', is '建てる (たてる)'.

    朝廷: court. The Japanese noun '朝廷 (ちょうてい)' refers to the imperial court or the government under the emperor in historical contexts. It specifically denotes the central administrative and ceremonial institution of the Japanese monarchy, particularly during the Heian period and earlier. This term is often used in historical or literary contexts to describe the political and social center of ancient Japan. For example: The emperor held power at the court「天皇は朝廷で権力を握っていた」(てんのうはちょうていでけんりょくをにぎっていた). The court was the center of politics「朝廷は政治の中心だった」(ちょうていはせいじのちゅうしんだった). Note that this term is archaic and not commonly used in modern contexts.
