That’s how I failed Pacific ocean. I typed Pacific :frowning:

Is it, though? Because it’s not like Yokohama Prefecture is even a thing. :stuck_out_tongue:

:laughing: Somehow I don’t think the prefecture part was the issue here. I’d personally prefer to be corrected before I travelled to Japan and discovered my hotel reservation was 400 miles away .

Oh, and no, I don’t plan to do that on foot, my Google maps planner is still set to it after my walk last week.

But anyway, my point is that Yokohama is not the name of a prefecture, so one would not reasonably expect anyone to give it as an answer. You may as well add every Japanese city that fits the vowel pattern to the block list.

Mmm…I’m going to skip adding this one to the block list for now because I can’t imagine too many other people confusing 横浜 with 岡山. I’m hoping you won’t be making this same mistake over and over :pray:

@Mods Maybe not right? It is a valid definition for 広げる, which makes me think it shouldn’t be OK.

As long as you were thinking “to expand intransitively” it’s safe :smiley:

Oh boy. That brings back memories. Of this:

Maybe you could come up with a mnemonic for the English spelling… like, maybe… it’s a phenotype with men on?

I enjoy your optimism of my ability to spell phenotype.

There’s a reason I own this mug:
