Gotta be careful with those analogies. Some people take offense easily. But it is certainly true that many words that sound different in Chinese are homophones in Japanese.

Oh, I'll take that in mind, I didn't want to offend anyone! I actually meant it in a positive way, but I see now why this analogy could be problematic kao_don.png

Just learned this funky looking 四字熟語已己巳己 kao_shock.png

A bit about its [etymology]. I wonder what the full story behind it is. Looks to be pretty recent (18th-19th century). I guess it's more of a fun trivia word.

I love funfacts about Japanese, thanks for sharing! I can also contribute a trivia word that I learned from a Japanese Hellotalk user: マルハラ

(まる) = 。

ハラ​ = ハラスメント

There is even a Wikipedia article about that. kaonashi.png
