[QUOTE="Syunsuke, post: 466920, member: 3443"] "I'm Japanese" is more natural or fluent than "I'm a Japanese" though the later isn't "wrong", OK? I learned it, so please stop this argument before getting nasty. Tsyr, I'm happy to hear you think kaginawa is possible etymology. Japanese have a habbit of botching other languages, too. There are a lot of strange foreign words in Japanese. soulmoon... soul + moon ? I think you chose fairly good kanji. [img]http://www.lfw.org:1717/jis-16/eeee00/4e6e.gif[/img] [img]http://www.lfw.org:1717/jis-16/eeee00/376e.gif[/img] First letter is REI, that means soul (also means ghost). Second is TSUKI, means moon. These two letters can be REITSUKI.No such word exist as normal Japanese, so you can read them simply as each pronuncatoin. However, if I coined that word, I'd pronounce REIGETSU. This sounds more natural as Japanses and cool. Or, if I want more archaic or Japanese-origin like (not Chinese-origin like) sound,TAMADUKI. Dragonblade, Watashi ha Osaka ni sunde imasu. Kyoto nimo 5nen kan sunde imashi ta. Anata no nihongo ha totemo jouzu desu. Zhure, Three of them are same words. Actually, a word KAWA (river) and partial word NAGA (whole word is NAGARERU, flow). And this don't rerate to hook with rope. Yellow Sign, As climbing device, Ninja surely used hook with rope ;kaginawa. As weapon, I don't know. [/QUOTE]
