Answer:

Tsunami is a Japanese word meaning "harbour wave(s)". Tsunamis are shallow-water waves, and therefore, like tides, they move in the open ocean at very high speeds.

Explanation:

The reason for the Japanese name "harbour wave" is that sometimes a village's fishermen would sail out, and encounter no unusual waves while out at sea fishing, and come back to land to find their village devastated by a huge wave.
