Mukade

Okay, so the japanese language is a pretty hard language to master. And I have a especially hard time memorizing vocabulary. However, I have discovered a way of mastering a word nearly instantly.

Mukade
It is called Terror!

These are called Mukade. They are the only venomous insect in Japan. However, in my opinion, that is all they need. These apparently grow to up to 20 cm in length, and can deliver a nasty sting. I have spent a bit time reading about them today and most JETs in our prefecture seem to have a run in with these leggy little guys.

All I know is that danielle has vowed to keep our house spic and span in order to prevent them from having anywhere to hide.

    […] a risk with foreign women apparently. Also, it decreases the risk that we will have a problem with Mukade. Great news on both parts. David, my predecessor, also had some nice things to say about our future […]
