梅雨　（つゆ）　= The Rainy Season

This is what most of Japan will be in for the rest of June.

終始

しゅうし

from beginning to end

I ran into this one today and thought it was kind of interesting.

It is intriguing because the structure of that compound is 'End-Beginning' rather than the other way around.

I noticed that too... a little different.

Since you are online Nagoyankee...do you know the background of the kanji

倶楽部
クラブ

? Is it a newer kanji, or is it a coincidence it sounds like クラブ (Club)?

The way I understand it is that it's a phonetic equivalebt for the English word 'club'. I know for a fact that it's been in use for well over a century like another word 珈琲　（コーヒー）. So there's no coincidence in these. Some people prefer to use these phonetic equilavents when naming their country clubs or coffee shops for their own aesthetic reasons. You will basically see these only in proper nouns.

Aha...OK, that makes sense. Thanks, Nagoyankee!

I feel bad for you guys who have to learn Kanji, when I was younger i school the teachers made us work hard memorizing Kanji and it was very difficult:vsign:

親日家　（しんにちか） = Japanophile

I wanna know what's the meaning of this character in Japanese.

魔

It means 'demon' or 'devil'. It's also written 悪魔 .
