Etymology
Ninja is the on'yomi reading of the two kanji 忍者 used to write shinobi-no-mono (忍の者), which is the native Japanese word for people who practice ninjutsu (忍術, sometimes erroneously transliterated as ninjitsu). The term shinobi (historically sino2bi2 written with the Man'yōgana 志能備), has been traced as far back as the late 8th century when Heguri Uji no Iratsume wrote a poem[1][2] to Ōtomo no Yakamochi. The underlying connotation of shinobi (忍), in Sino-Japanese means "to steal away" and—by extension—"to forbear," hence its association with stealth and invisibility. Mono (者, likewise pronounced sha or ja) means "person."

The word ninja became popular in the post-World War II culture. The nin of ninjutsu is the same as that in ninja, whereas jutsu (術) means skill or art, so ninjutsu means "the skill of going unperceived" or "the art of stealth"; hence, ninja and shinobi-no-mono (as well as shinobi) may be translated as "one skilled in the art of stealth." Similarly, the pre-war word ninjutsu-zukai means "one who uses the art of remaining unperceived."

Other terms which may be used include oniwaban (お庭番 "one in the garden"), suppa, rappa, mitsumono, kusa (草 grass) and Iga-mono ("one from Iga").

In English language, the plural of ninja can be either unchanged as ninja, reflecting the Japanese language's lack of grammatical number, or the regular English plural ninjas.[3]

Ninjas in pop-culture
In the mid-1960s the Japanese TV series The Samurai created a major wave of popularity for the ninja in Japan, and this was replicated in several other countries where the series was screened, most notably in Australia, where the program's popularity rivaled its following in Japan among children. In Masashi Kishimoto's popular manga/anime Naruto, ninja are the main focus and ruling power. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) originally was intended to satirize the characterizations of ninja in the Western comics, primarily drawing on the fictionalized representations created by Frank Miller in Marvel's Daredevil comics of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Many sources, including books, television, movies, and websites are portraying ninja in non-factual ways, often for humor or entertainment. Popular examples include the Real Ultimate Power website and book, the Ninja Spirit parody video series, and the Ask a Ninja podcast and website which are satirically written, feigning obsessive over-enthusiasm for ninja. Ninja Burger presents a fiction in which Ninja can be hired to deliver fast food in 30 minutes or less without being seen, or, on failure, commit seppuku. More popular western fictional ninja have appeared in the popular 1980's ninja-oriented films of Japanese actor and martial artist Sho Kosugi, the American Ninja series, and the TMNT franchise, among others. Ninja frequently appear in videogames (i.e. Tenchu, Ninja Gaiden, Shinobi, Shinobido), where they have gained as strong a following among gamers as they have among movie-goers. In the movie You Only Live Twice, James Bond is brought to a government ninja training camp by the head of the Japanese secret service, Tiger Tanaka, and survives several assassination attempts there. Kawasaki Heavy Industries adopted the name "Ninja" for one of their lines of sportsbikes. (See Kawasaki Ninja.)
