Shouldn't it be ru? The e I think indicates "thinking" ^^

I think 向こう側 (mukougawa) is better... mukou just means opposite... (direction, party, etc.)

so... u... from mukou

Hi there, JAL-san, nice to meet you!
Since this thread is only for the shiritori word game, you are not supposed to post a question here, but please do not worry. We have some other section where you can ask questions about Japanese language.

Please check here.
You can create a new thread by clicking the button saying "new thread" on the left and ask anything about Japanese language there. There are always many nice people there who can help you out with your questions. You are always welcome!

Now, let me get back to the shiritori game

My word is 綿菓子（わたがし）- watagashi -cotton candy

とろろ
薯蕷 (I think this is usually written in hiragana)
tororo
grated yam

This gets mashed up and put on noodles, a little bit expensive. I don't like this stuff, its texture when mashed is quite horrid.
