Today, I would like to share interesting Japanese term. That is Beiju, beiju has been familiar as Japanese 88th birthday party. Beiju comes from Japanese language "bei" and "ju", actually bei in kanji 米 which is has same characteristic with 8 + 8 in kanji 八 ＋ 八. See the kanji's character, if we merge it will be 米 (called bei), bei it self has meaning rice and ju has kanji's character as 寿 which has meaning celebration. So, the final meaning of Beiju is rice celebration, then the celebration identically with rice. Let me explain, the 88th birthday, she/he will give less rice to all people who come to celebrate, it has mean that some one who celebrating Beiju party are wishing to god to give the long life to the guests.
yup, that's all I can share to you guys....
Have a great day a head :D
