Day XXXV: ネズミの会議 & 人にだまされたタヌキ

Two pretty short stories today.

First one was on the home page and is a cute story about some mice holding a council on what to do about a cat.

Second one was today’s Japanese folktale, and it’s the well-known one about the mischievous tanuki and the tree, first time reading it in Japanese though!

Also, today is Timetable Day - 時刻表記念日

Look how happy this little guy is to be doing some timetabling:

~ New Words & Meanings ~
ビクビク - Onomatopoeia for trembling (in fear)
賛成 (さんせい) - Agreement: It’s here on WK, but I didn’t know you could use it as a stand alone word like this - similar to how people say “aye!” when in favour of a vote on something.
ネズミ - Mouse: not a new word, but I wondered what the kanji is - 鼠.
達磨忌 (だるまき) - Daruma Doll, don’t think I’ve seen this in kanji before.
