'Honshu,' or the largest of the four main islands of Japan, upon which Tokyo, Kyoto, and Nagoya are located, literally means "original state." In Japanese, words can often be broken down by the kanji (character symbols) that comprises them, and in the case of Honshu, the first kanji (pronounced 'hon') means book or origin, and the second ('shuu') means state or province. Put together, then, they equal "original state."
