A little Japanese excerpt related to the above vocabulary. 

In Japan the word shiri is the word for hips, buttocks or the bottom. Putting the honorific O onto shiri gives us the word for our butt. Shiri ni tsuku means to be dominated by someone. Shiri ga karui is a term used for loose women or floozies.

About brettkun

Makurasuki Sensei, Brett McCluskey. enjoys sharing his knowledge of Japanese Grammar  with those serious about becoming fluent in another langauge.  Japanese Just happens to be his forte. He applauds all efforts in of those who pursuit fluency in Japanese, or in whatever language they choose to learn. Journey toward Fluency

I started my Journey toward Japanese fluency at a tender age. I remember studying very hard waking up early every morning to study with only one goal in mind. To be able to converse freely with the Japanese people in their own tongue, I desired to possess this skill more than any other. I worked hard at pronunciation, at memorizing vocabulary.

My efforts toward the study and mastery of the Japanese language has become an endeavor that is more than an adventure in learning about the Japanese people, their culture and their language, it has become a part of the way I conduct my life.

Want to avoid the pain and hours of practice it takes to become fluent in a foreign language? Try How to master any language through lingual skill endowments
I am also a performing musician and very much into music and Japanese, but not necessarily Japanese music.


Make strides toward fluency in any language!"
