Tanki wa Sonki (短気は損気 - Haste Makes Waste)

Are you a person who loses your temper easily or gets bored quickly?

Such a personality is called "tanki" (短気) in Japan.

Here "tan" (短) of "tanki" means "short," and "ki" (気) means "temper."

Also, there is a famous Japanese proverb, "tanki wa sonki" (短気は損気 - tanki makes sonki).

This proverb means that if you lose your temper easily, you will make a loss.

Since "ki" (気) of "sonki" is added to "son" (損 - loss) for matching with the sound of "tanki," it has no meaning.
