3 facts about japan!

almost everyone knows about Japan. its food, its culture, etc. here are some facts about Japan!

1.the numbers 4 and 9 are believed to be unlucky in Japan. 4 can be pronounced as  "shi" which is a homophone for death in Japanese . 9 can be pronounced as "ku" which is a homophone for suffering in Japanese. so when saying 4 and 9 in Japanese, it's best to pronounce it as "yon" ( for 4) and "kyu" (for 9) when saying these numbers.

2. I don't mean to be offensive to any Japanese people, but the way the people of japan bath is very weird to me ( probably because I don't live in Japan). before people bath in Japan, they rinse or wash themself off after taking off their clothes ( sometimes they rinse themself off with a wooden bucket). then after they have rinsed or washed themself, they then go into the bathtub. I don't know if they do this anymore, but I would like to try it!

3. ever heard of the word "yandere"? if you haven't, then it's a Japanese term for someone who has a big crush for another person (usually known as a "senpai") and will do anything to get them to be their boyfriend/girlfriend/wife/husband. even if it means killing a person for their crush. now, I don't mean to be offensive to anyone who is a yandere. anyone can have a crush on someone else. but if you are to obsessed over them, or want to kill someone for your crush, then: stop it, get some help.



i hope you enjoyed these 3 facts about Japan!
