Forum game: Shiritori
Decided to try something fun and see who wants to join in, trying to make it as edumacational as possible.
Taken from Wikipedia...
Shiritori (しりとり) is a Japanese word game in which the players are required to say a word which begins with the final kana of the previous word
Basic rules
* Two or more people take turns to play.
* Only nouns are permitted.
* A player who plays a word ending in the mora N (ん) loses the game, as no Japanese word begins with that character.
* Words may not be repeated.
* Phrases connected by no (の) are permitted, but only in those cases where the phrase is sufficiently fossilized to be considered a "word".
Example: sakura (さくら)-> rajio (ラジオ)-> onigiri (おにぎり)-> risu (りす)-> sumou (すもう) -> udon (うどん)
The player who used the word udon lost this game.
Now for the edumacational part...
To the best of your ability, fill in all possible info
romaji/kana (kanji if you want super bonus points, please note that the super bonus points ARE A LIE) and finally english translation.
Here is the format:
shiritori -> ringo/りんご apple.
ringo -> gokiburi/ごきぶり cockroach.
