We use Japanese Kanji word “忍耐(にんたい-nintai)” for translating English word “Patience” into Japanese. Both of the kanji “忍(にん, じん or しの(ぶ)-nin, jin or shino(bu))” and “耐(たい, だい or た(える)-tai, dai or ta(eru))” have a meaning of “Patience” so the word “忍耐” also means “Patience”.
And we have a few similar meaning words for “忍耐” like the following example words; “我慢(がまん-gaman)” means patience or endurance, “辛抱(しんぼう-sjinbou)” means patience or forbearance and “隠忍(いんにん-innin)” means patience or endurance etc.
