    The Japanese word kaizen (改善) means "improvement". There is no "continuous" sense to the word. Just for reference, here are two definitions from Japanese dictionaries. Daijirin: 「物事をよい方に改めること。」 Nihon Kokugo Daijiten: 「物事の悪い面を改めてよくすること。よい方向へ改めること。改良。⇔改悪。」

    Thanks for the clarification Nihon.   Is there a Japanese equivalent for the English concept of "continuous improvement"? (i.e. how to say continuous Kaizen?)
