Why translating Japanese can be a bit difficult (but quite the lol). :)

Hello again peeps! Deciding what and whether to post can be a bit tricky, but once I get going I really like it. How are you doing?
Japanese Club 2day was quite interesting. We were learning about kanji and Sensei was translating our names into it. (tricky, I know.) Of course none of our names were Japanese, he did it based on the translation of our names in Japanese and there were some very weird results. My name came out as "mountain lady well." (Not my pen name, that means cherry blossom, my real name.)
Mum's cooking mincemeat next door. Smells tasty.
Anyway, if your name's James, beware. Sensei translated it as "self defence no protection." Priceless.
