Animal Crackers

Let’s learn English with animal crackers!

Look a rooster! It’s on my dic…tionary!

Seriously though, you can learn a lot of animal words from Japanese snack boxes.

I didn’t know that 「おっとせい」was “furseal” in Japanese.

The things you don’t learn on 1-kyuu (JLPT).

BTW Next year is the year of the boar!

    M. Duck? Is it related to M. Bison? o.O

    It’d be awesome to find a box of these in a local “Asian” shop… They’re always tasty and fun to read. Hopefully someone will sell them.

    The backside has it explained.
    M. Duck means Mandarin Duck.

    Lynx = Great mountain cat? :o
    Definitly a must for people who don’t know some japanse animal names.

    is the katakana above M.duck drying to say “madrairin duck”? and how are you supposed to recognise a peafowl based on a cookie? isn’t it just like a hawk?

    Yeah, マンダリンダック！ I think they should make the cookies out of peafowls.

    How do you say peafowl in Japanese??
