# <span id = "C2N1">Tonarigumi - Neighborhood associations were established in Japan in 1944 to protect from fires and air-raids. These neighborhood groups were made of about ten to fifteen households.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N1|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N2">4LDK - 4 room apartment with Living, Dining and Kitchen area.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N2|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N3">In the original, Yuuri says "Bikei", which is 'beauty', and then "Keibi", which is "guard". The meaning of the second word doesn't matter, he's just tripping over his words. He continues to play with the sound of words in the next sentence, but it doesn't translate well.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N3|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N4">Yuuri is saying that Günter, as he was aging, has a more mature, elegant look than someone who is younger.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N4|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N5">By 'after', Yuuri means after he left the baseball team.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N5|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N6">Yuuri originally says that he is saying "o" too much, which is used in front of honorific words in Japanese.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N6|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N7">Yuuri originally says, "Narunia, janakatta, naruhodo". Similar to when he said "keibi" instead of "bikei", he's mispronounced what he meant to say again to make a pun.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N7|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N8">Yuuri would be worried that Günter would use the ruler to discipline him.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N8|(Return to Text)]]

# <span id = "C2N13">Yuuri says "Honyara" in place of "Maoh". "Honyara" is like saying "Blankityblank", it doesn't really mean anything. This is from a typical 'poem' studied in grade school in Japan called "Maoh". The poem is originally in German and you can read more about it here.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N13|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N14">"Hakushon Dai Maoh" was a television show about a genie and his daughter genie. The main genie had to give wishes when someone sneezed (hakushon = achoo) and the other when someone yawned.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N14|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N15">Yuuri seems to have made up a word, and not even he knows what it means. He then plays with the words for a little bit. In the end it seems he equates a "honyara" with being the same thing as a "maoh".</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N15|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N16">川 is the kanji for river, which has three straight lines. Sleeping "like the character of the river" is like sleeping in straight lines next to each other.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N16|(Return to Text)]]
# <span id = "C2N17">Sound of a horse.</span> [[MaruMA:Volume01:Chapter_2#C2N17|(Return to Text)]]
