Hello, I may not understand English very well and I may lack words but I will try to understand you.

If you have questions about my post or Japanese customs, don't hesitate to ask.

鰻 うなぎ Unagi - Japanese Eel

I have to be honest here and state that I had a little giggle when I realised Shiritori means to "take from behind". *childish snigger*.


I'm sorry for all the bad stuff I said and all the feelings I hurt.. Please forgive me

Sigh... why is うなぎ this popular? (third time mentioned.)

義侠

ぎきょう

Chivalry.

I think Shiritori literally means "taking the behind". Subtle difference, but still snigger-worthy if you go far enough.

Apparently, I don't read well. I would have just put うた for song, instead.

うち House. (Sorry if this was already taken, and my apologies for the pretty rudimentary language!)
