There are a few different ways to do it depending on the context.

侍 (samurai) – Edo period warriors

兵 (tsuwamono) – Brave man, fighter; general “warrior” type of guy.

武者 (musha) – Another general “warrior” term

戦士 (senshi) – Soldier, general “warrior” in the military/fighting sense

武士 (bushi) – This means “warrior” but it’s usually only used as a prefix in words like “bushido”.

Warrior in Japanese is senshi. If you go on google and say for example “How do you spell warrior in Japanese” Its the first thing that comes up.

Just a guess, but based on the little I know, I’d say “samuria.”

I think it’s “bushi” because “bushido” is the way of the warrior
