Japanese words round up

[coolohoh]

Because it's been a really long time since I last posted any words...

神籤 (みくじ, mikuji) - Fortune slip (usu. bought at a shrine).
It literally means God lot. Lot as in, lottery, drawing lots.

翌日 (よくじつ, yokujitsu) - Next day

拘り (こだわり, kodawari)

1. Obsession; fixation; hangup; determination; fastidiousness; pickiness about (trait, style, etc.).Usually written using kana alone

2. Complaining; criticizing.

仕草 (しぐさ, shigusa) - Action; acting; gesture; bearing; treatment; behavior; behaviour.

句読点 (くとうてん, kutouten) - Punctuation mark; punctuation marks

読点 (とうてん, touten) - Comma

句点 (くてん, kuten) - Period; full stop.

So 句読点 literally means periods and comma. I.e. punctuation marks. Interesting eh?

狸 (たぬき, tanuki) - Racoon dog

Most of the words were from the Nep league ChocoJun (his first ChocoJun appearance) episode...
