Time for another Kanji Scrabble this week. First off, our apologies for a post later in the week due to the Japan exclusive holiday “Golden Week” (found out more in our Culture Class #15 lesson)
The Kanji for this week are as follows: (Remember, each compound must use the Kanji in the brackets [ ].)

Answers posted tomorrow morning at 10am Tokyo time! Next week’s will begin on Thursday like usual.
