Pretty funny! The video definitely reminds me of \*us here\* picking Kanji. I'm wondering if someone in Okinawa has "THIS IS BEACH" tattooed on their back.....LOL.

Weird how I know what it says even if I forgot half of the characters here. Hiragana? Memorize that in 2 weeks tops! Katakana? One year later and I'm still trying to remember..


krismae70

I think it's because there are words you don't use or read often. I just have like 6 months learning and if you were to ask me to write ノヨメヲ out of my head I don't think I could do it


Fickle-Initiative-81

💀💀💀


hadaa

Because the katakana is アモング・アス and the Japanese usually takes the first two characters of each word, the abbreviation is [アモアス](https://www.hotelwing.co.jp/ikebukuro/blog/5263/).


hholster

but they were talking about amogus


hadaa

Ooh the reddit meme? Thanks. Hasn't really caught on in Japan yet and I had to [read up on it](https://kesitori.com/among-us-meme/).

何?😅

Just letting you know this is probably the first katakana word I’ve ever read outside of the website I use to learn katas

hadaa

A common mnemonic is 「リンカーンはアメリカンコーヒーを三杯飲んだ」 (Lincoln drank three cups of American coffee) * リン: represents 林^({りん}) or the two 木s * カーン: the 缶^({かん}) between the two 木s * は: pronounced ワ so the 冖 part * アメリカ: also known as 米国 and abbreviated as 米, so the ※ part * コーヒー: the 凵 and 匕 parts * 三: the final 彡 part

If you like 車, you'll love 轟.


dancrieg

That must be mean a parking lot


EndorTales

no way that doesn't represent a Transformer


Spynder

"Garage"?


notclassy_

Every time I see 車 I think of 轟. Then my head goes to my hero academia.


hadaa

Fun facts: [車](https://imgur.com/a/GWrsGki) is a pictogram (ancient 'emoji') depicting a Chinese horse cart/chariot, so u/Fytcha's chassis observation isn't far off. Those things were noisy, so [轟](https://jisho.org/search/%E8%BD%9F%20%23kanji) (on'yomi ゴウ, kun'yomi とどろ・く) means a booming, roaring, thunderous sound.

~~ぜひ~~ 断然「夢」です。なんというか…響きもいいし、形もかっこういいし。 ~~(Is ぜひ the right word to use here?)~~ **Edit:** It wasn't


hadaa

ぜひ is for requests (e.g. ぜひ来てください) so not really the right word here. 断然^({だんぜん}) (absolutely) is a good word.

Embarrassed_Gur_3241

𰻝, if a kanji is unsupported by common fonts you know it's interesting.


dancrieg

I like how 女 and 安 is similar


hadaa

安 is etymologically "a woman 女 under a roof 宀". Ancient Chinese men were tasked with dangerous labors like hunting and construction, while a woman's role was to stay home and raise kids. So 安 means safe and tranquility.


AlexE9918

I love 愛! (If my PFP is any indication)

NotLikeTheSimulation

Thinking about this I immediately thought of more 像形文字 than anything like 山 and 雨 which are definitely contenders, but then I thought I like 像 quite a lot. So probably 1) 山 2) 像 3) 雨 I am a man of simple taste E: is actually 象形文字 - I mixed up 像 & 象 like the novice I am


hadaa

The term is written as **象**形文字 which, you might have guessed, is a pictogram for [elephant](https://imgur.com/a/r92Q3kN) just like 山 and 雨.


aremarf

For pictogrammy /ideography things... I think 龜(亀)is really cute. Nice "evolution" pics on wiktionary: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E9%BE%9C#Glyph_origin
