KITSU |
FOXES ( = きつね) stop at the coffee-shop to get their drink on. |
I got a contract to enjoy a drink and smoke with my mouth every time I go to that cafe . |
喫茶店 |
coffe-shop
★★★☆☆
a coffee-shop. These are really popular because Japanese don't invite people over to their homes very often - they meet at the coffee-shop. This is fairly polite example to point to when a Japanese asks you, "Do foreigners really think we're a cold people?" BOOBOO: most Japanese don't say きっさてん。 they just say 喫茶、(きっさ)。 |
喫煙 |
smoking
☆☆☆☆☆
NP
the act of smoking. You'll see this on signs a lot, meaning 'this is the smoking section.' |
Meaning | Hint | Radical | |
---|---|---|---|
暇 | free time | DAY | 日 |
喫 | enjoy a drink and a smoke | MOUTH | 口 |
潔 | honorable | WATER | 水 |
御 | the honorific "o" | GO | 行 |
I'm free TODAY, to enjoy a drink with my MOUTH.
I'm honorable so I'll share my WATER .
As for 御, it is easy because the left radical means GO in English, and it's pronounced GO!!!
