Write a japanese word - with its meaning- that begins by the last syllable or character of the japanese word typed by the previous poster.

By example :
> tamago - egg
The next poster could write :
> gomene - sorry
or
> onegai - please

I've seen this game in another forum that's unfortunately currently down and I think it's a funny way to pick up and use some japanese words.

I begin with :

nezumi - mouse

how do we know what the character is? If we don't know the kanji then, unless we happen to speak japanese, we can't know where the last syllable starts since in japanese one character can have more than one syllable to it....

you put that tamago could have gomen or onegai after it, so is the last syllable/character of tamago "go" or just "o"?

I'M confused!!!!!!!!!!

shima - island
