Hey everyone!!!
I figured we could play the japanese word game, Shiritori.
How do you play?
Someone puts a japanese word. The next person has to take the last character sound and use that to start their word. Kind of like that english game where we take the last letter and start our word with that? only you need to use the syllable or character. I can't explain it, but you'll get it =) it's easy.
Example:
Poster 1:: 犬 いぬ Inu :: 1. Dog 2. Spy
Poster 2:: 縫う ぬう Nu'u :: Sew
Poster 3:: 憂い うれい Urei :: Melancholy; sorrow
Getting the idea??
GOOD! I have a few stipulations though.
Rules::
1- If it Has a kanji put the kanji first, followed by hiragana/katakana, followed by romanji.
2- Do not use words that end in "n" or ”ん” as there are no japanese words that start with this. EX: うどん Udon :: Japanese Noodles
3- Do not double post. The game is not very fun if you're only playing by yourself =)
4- Try not to repeat words, but definitely do not repeat words on the same page. I understand it's hard to remember everything in past pages so just try not to repeat within the thread. =)
Not know how to type in Japanese? See THIS thread first お願いします!
With that being said, there is no reason for you to not type in the Kanji, Kana, and Romanji as well as give us the definition.
I personally advise using a Japanese-English dictionary. I Think most of you would have one. if not, I hope to have a japanese-english-japanese book up in the free/online resources soon keep checking that out =)
I'll start the game now =)
