Shinobi

I think they were called ninja ( Shinobi) because ninja stole stuff (etc; took) as a thief would.
A shinobi is another word for a ninja. More precisely, it is the Japanese word for "male ninja".
Warlord
If you mean shogun, typically pronounced in English as "show-guhn," the correct Japanese pronunciation is "show-goon."
武将 - Warlord武 - Takeshi将 - Masaru将軍Shōgun
In Japanese, the Kanji alphabet uses mostly Chinese characters that represent ideas instead of sounds. Therefore, each kanji character can be read phonetically either in Japanese or Chinese. The word 'ninja' comes from the Chinese characters 'nin' and 'sha' (which basically mean 'stealth' and 'person'). Those same characters, in Japanese kanji, are read as 'shinobi no mono'. So the Japanese word for 'ninja' is 'shinobi'.
In Japanese? Male ninja = shinobi , Female ninja = kunoichi.
It is Japanese. Both 'Ninja' and 'Shinobi' are written the same way, they are just different readings of the same characters.
