My sensei is a very complimentary man; as in, he is very good at telling you when you’re doing well. He's also very good at telling you when you’re not, and doing so without being at all mean, or making you feel in any way bad. So, for weeks now, I thought he was saying ‘yummy’. He's a funny man, so this didn't cause me any pause at all. Turns out, not so much. He's not saying ‘yummy’, he's saying ‘yame’, which is the Japanese word for ‘stop’.
Clearly I must learn more Japanese than the names of sword parts.
