Winter song
Today’s song had so many surprises for me:
- Non-japanese singing in Japanese was a first for me to see!
- English verses after the Japanese verse
- Rapping on two occasions
So much diversity!! From instruments, to kind of singing, to language and race! I just love it! I also wanted to look up the english translation and found the original song, which I also enjoyed. It seems the original song was about a break up? Is this new song answering to that? Is it a happy ending now?
Reading more into the lyrics of the one that was linked, I’m not sure I really understood the story it’s trying to tell. I couldn’t make sense of any of the english lyrics, tbh.
Kanji writing
Yayyy! I love today’s pick because I looked through the list beforehand and was thinking to practice this one.
Words of interest not already posted:
- 気楽「きらく」carefree, comfortable; easygoing, happy-go-lucky
- お気に入り「おきにいり」favorite, pet (teacher’s pet); bookmark (in web browser)
- 気候変動「きこうへんどう」climate change
Origami
Was honestly intimidated by this one watching the first few seconds of the video. But it was easier than I expected! I think I’ll be sending the toys I make to my nephew!

@Beyond_Sleepy it will only get better as you practice! I think they look good considering this is your first time trying! I’ve had a lot of practice with also learning Hangeul previously and I learned the kana writing way back like 10 years ago. Kanji is definitely way more difficult! Tried out free style this day’s kanji btw. And will download the pilot episode of Sword Art Online to see if i like it.
@softlyraining loved your choice of 3-stroke and 5-stroke kanji. That five stroke one looks like tetris to me. Haven’t encountered any of those kanji in WK yet, but have seen them in the wild… Wonder which levels they’ll show up on here.
@DIO-Berry happy to post mine on your origami thread at the end as suggested. I may also need a reminder though. Hoping to see your creations on here soon!
