In Japanese, the word baka means "idiot," "moron," "fool," or "dimwit"; it can also refer to the condition of being stupid.Baka is written with the Chinese characters 馬鹿, which literally mean "horse-deer" Another theory states that the word baka was first used by Buddhist monks, and the word originated from a Sanskrit word moha.

In my country, there is the driest desert in the world, called ATACAMA. That's lots of As and I read once a japanese paper that said that a name ending with an A where easier to remember. Maybe that`s why there are plenty of japanese car model called like that: Acura, Mazda, Honda, Toyota.\nGood luck!\n\nRodrigo

The zigzags really form a family of related kinds of ritual symbols I have found indications that usage and names differ in different parts of Japan.. The main ones have the names "O-shide", Go-hei, and "Harai gushi".\n\nhttp://www.britishorigami.info/academic/lister/shinto.htm this site has info all about them!

Ok, I do Japanese and as such don't know exactly what the Wado-Ryu names are, because they're Okinawan or something. I have translated the Shotokan equivalent. (It should be the same meaning)\n\nKarate - 空手 - Karate (Literally empty hand. Originally written 唐手, which is still karate, but means Chinese hand instead)\n\nPinan (Heian) - 平安 - Heian (Is the name of an emperor, a place and literally means peace)\n\nShodan - 初段 - Beginner's level\nNidan - 二段 - Level two\nSandan - 三段 - Level three\nYondan - 四段 - Level four\nGodan - 五段 - Level five\n\nNaihanchi (Tekki) - 鉄騎 - Iron horserider\n\nDai - 大 - Major (Literally big)\nSho - 小 - Minor (Literally small)\n\nKushanku (Kanku) - 観空 - View the sky\nSeishan (Hangetsu) - 半月 - Half moon\nChinto (Gankaku) - 岩鶴 - Crane on the rock\n\nTo view the Japanese, you'll need to install Japanese fonts. If you need some, search in Google for "Japanese IME".\n\nHope that helps! Took ages to write up!

Chinese is the older language.  Japanese went to China in the Chin dynasty to learn the language and culture; therefore, lots of Japanese words have Chinese roots, some even have similar meanings.\n\nChina, the sleeping dragon, is the rising power and is the better language to learn.

Actually true. Back in 4500 BC, before the english language was in use, the name "JAPAN" meant Shang-yo-ching-chi-yang. When translated to modern english, 6500 years later, it does actually mean JUMPING AND PUMPING AT NIGHT!

♡Well, I live in Japan and I think the regular phrase would be "suteki na" 素敵 【すてき】 (adj-na,n) lovely; dreamy; beautiful; great; fantastic; superb; *cool; capital. ～But I always hear the "younger" Japanese girls (and guys) use the word "kakkoii!"  (sounds like "kah-koo-ee"). I'm not sure about the spelling, but I know it means something along the lines of "cool, wonderful, great..."! (☆Found it with my hubby's help!)↓\nhttp://rut.org/cgi-bin/j-e/dosearch?sDict=on&H=PS&L=J&T=kakkoii&WC=none&FG=w&BG=b&S=26\n That could be used. They use it for good looking guys, fashionable clothes, wonderful accessories... I'm sure someone will give you the correct spelling or another option! Hope this helps!♡\n♡Kara, I suggest you go to this site and check the Japanese words for yourself too.(*^o^*) You can learn lots of new words and choose the ones you like best!\nhttp://rut.org/cgi-bin/j-e/dict\nIt's easy, enter the Japanese word, for example kakkoii, Ikemen, bishounen and press "go". Your answers will appear soon. It's a useful site!

I don't know what exactly you want, so here you go:\n\n"Father" = 父 (chichi)\n"Daddy" = お父さん (otousan = addressed to the father)\n\n"and" = と (to)\n\n"Son" = 息子 (musuko = literally breath - child)\n\nSo you could write: 父と息子 (chichi to musuko)\n\n==========================\nOr alternatively, there is a noun that is used for "father and son" it is:\n\n"Father and Son" = 父子 (fushi = the first character stands for "father", the second stands for  "child")
