AboutDreams Expertise I have been teaching myself the language for the past seven years, having consistent practice with Japanese materials. I can help translate things from English to Japanese or vice versa. I can also help you get started if you're planning on taking up the language. =) I'm most familiar with things like anime, manga, J-pop, games and so on.
Experience I began learning the language in 1999. I frequently talk with penpals and natives in Japan, as well as continually keep up practicing with authentic Japanese materials.
Expert: Dreams Date: 4/2/2008 Subject: Japanese word for Atomic Bomb?
Question Im currently doing research on the Atomic Bomb and was wondering if the Japanese had a word for it or something relatively close.
Thank you.^_^
Answer Hello,
"Atomic bomb" in Japanese is 原子爆弾 (genshi bakudan), which is just literally "atom bomb". This phrase is frequently shortened to 原爆 (genbaku), simply combining the first part of each word.
