Mawaranai Sushi Part 1
September 1st was my birthday, so my friend and I did something special.
It is to go to eat mawaranai sushi (回らない寿司).
Since mawaru (回る) means "to rotate," nai (ない) is the negative suffix, and sushi (寿司) means "sushi" (a traditional Japanese cuisine), the literal meaning of mawaranai sushi is "sushi that does not rotate."
To tell you the truth, mawaranai sushi is a slang term that was made as an antonym of kaiten zushi (回転寿司), the literal meaning of which is "rotating sushi."
To be continued.

回らない寿司 Part 2
9月1日は私の誕生日だったので、少しだけ特別なことをしました。
それは、「回らない寿司」を食べに行くことです。
「回る」は "to rotate"、「ない」は否定語、「寿司」は "sushi" を意味するので、「回らない寿司」の文字どおりの意味は "sushi that does not rotate" です。
実を言うとこの言葉は、「回転寿司」に対して作られた俗語です。
