Anyway, one of them was right --- your turn again. :D :content:

If you have ever heard the word "udewa" ("bracelet"), then that word is basically the kanji combination "ude-wa" = "arm-ring". ^^
You can see the exactly same kind of logic in the word "yubiwa" ("ring") as well, which is just "yubi-wa" ("finger-ring"). ;)
"Gakusei" is correct. :content:
Your turn. :D
Interesting. Thanks for the explanation. : 3Quote:

I know that "kocha" is "tea", more specifically "green tea". :)
I am a bit unsure about "semai", though - it looks like an i-adjective, and the sound of it is rather strict and demanding.
More words, wahoo!
1. Ankoku
2. Gakkou
Yeah, its tea. But its black tea in English not green.:3Quote:

2.Gakkou School
Here are my words now.
1.Tsukue
2.Hidoi
I am not sure about Tsukue but I'm pretty sure hidoi means: Mean / cruel.
1. urusai
2. baito
Yes, pretty much - "hidoi" can mean things like "cruel", "horrible" etc.Quote:

As for your words, I know that "urusai" is an i-adjective and means "loud" or "annoying";
"baito" looks like an English loadword, possibly "bite" or "byte".
My words:
1. Yuka
2. Ishi
Yay, Mr.Priority participated~ : D And yeah tsukue does mean desk.
Sadly I have no idea what the above words mean so ill guess.
1.Yuka ????
2.Ishi Four of something?
Haha, not quite right. :content:Quote:

Spoiler for Aforementioned hints:
Yes, correct on both words. Though baito can also be used for work. A part-time job for instance is regularly called baito.Quote:

1. Chair
2. Diamond
Ah yes, I remember that "baito" is a shorter version of the German "Arbeit" ("job").Quote:

Your guesses are on the right track, however number 1 supports your weight a lot more frequently than chairs, and number 2 is more "boring" than a diamond.
1.???
2.rock
Haha yeah, you basically got number 2 right - "ishi" means "stone". :content:Quote:

It may be worth pointing out that it seems like "ishi" is usually the word for a small stone, whereas a larger rock or boulder is usually called "iwa".
Alright, your turn. :)
Cool~ Thx for the info too. I would have never guessed floor though. That was kind of tricky.^^Quote:
