I love taking photos of cute signs. In Japanese the word pig is bura (boo-rah) so I think thatโ€™s the play on words here. In American English, a โ€œboo-booโ€ is an injury and youโ€™d use it with small children: Did you fall and get a boo boo? Let me get you a bandage and kiss it and make it all better. โ€œBoo!โ€ is also what a ghost says when itโ€™s trying to scare you. Languages are weird.

I canโ€™t believe I mistyped the r/t twice. Iโ€™m still getting used to my new iPhone and I reset my autocorect keyboard because it was driving me insane auto correcting a bunch of words I use like is, the, and great into English names, like Isabella, Teresa, and Greta. Now I just look dumb because I canโ€™t walk and type.

โ€œBoobooโ€ in Japanese refers to children calling cars โ€œbooboo,โ€ so I think it combines the meanings of โ€œthe piggyโ€™s boobooโ€ and โ€œcarsโ€ into one!

Noticing the wordplay on the cute sign shows how observant you are! Itโ€™s so interesting how languages have different meanings and fun expressions. Itโ€™s really fascinating how diverse and quirky languages can be! ๐Ÿฅฐ

What connections or observations can you make between the Japanese and English wordplays described here? Or, do you think this kind of sign appeals more to tourists or locals?
