It's like someone reciting a poem, who, when afterwards asked if this was a composition of his own, proudly replies, "No, I read it in a book".dejjnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919350949272858772.post-10977174812167428612010-04-16T08:55:55.266-07:002010-04-16T08:55:55.266-07:00As anonymous says these words are all written corr...As anonymous says these words are all written correctly in Japanese; they are not Chinese. They mean roughly:<br />楽しみ looking forward [to something]<br />夢中 crazy about [something], fascinated by [something]<br />因果応報 karma [Buddhist term]<br />最高潮 climax [but not sexual]<br />裏切 betrayal<br /><br />I don't think 裏切 has anything to do with 切腹, but that's an interesting idea! The word may indeed have arisen in feudal times, perhaps coming from the idea of literally stabbing an ally in the back, or killing someone on the "inside" (your side) with a sword.Alan Siegristhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10670697122602993760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919350949272858772.post-47222892525749797692010-04-14T17:10:21.667-07:002010-04-14T17:10:21.667-07:00They are all from Japanese.

Even though the characters are Chinese, the word order and sentence structure doesn't make sense in Chinese. 夢中 needs something in front or in back of it to make sense in Chinese. 因果応報 is Japanese, but borrowed from Buddhist term in Chinese: 応 = Japanese simplification of 應. In Chinese, it's 因果報應/ 因果報应.高潮 is enough in Chinese. Adding 最 in front doesn't make sense in Chinese. 裏切 is Japanese, maybe somewhat similar to 切腹?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919350949272858772.post-9376075908224298832010-04-13T18:14:45.408-07:002010-04-13T18:14:45.408-07:00In Japanese the characters 夢中 are "in dream&q...In Japanese the characters 夢中 are "in dream" literally, but mean something along the lines of "completely absorbed/immersed in"Yokohama'bamanoreply@blogger.com
