Interesting Riddles Part 1
Yesterday, I introduced the term nazonazo (なぞなぞ), which means "riddle."
Next, I would like to introduce some interesting Japanese riddles.
Question: 'Kame to rakuda to sai ga kaimono ni ikimashita. Nani wo kau deshō?' (カメとラクダとサイが買い物に行きました。何を買うでしょう？ - "A turtle, a camel, and a rhino went shopping. What would they buy?")
The answer is kamera (カメラ - "camera").
By combining kame (カメ - "turtle"), rakuda (ラクダ - "camel"), and sai (サイ - "rhino"), it becomes kamera kudasai (カメラ下さい - "Please give me a camera").

昨日は「なぞなぞ」という言葉を紹介しました。

問題「カメとラクダとサイが買い物に行きました。何を買うでしょう？」
答えは「カメラ」です。
カメとラクダとサイを繋げて言うと、「カメラ下さい」になるというわけです。
