However, I am a piffling backside in the volume count.

Sasuke
サスケ is the Japanese title of the TV evidence, Sasuke Ascension.
サスケ is the original Japanese Tv testify that inspired the American Ninja Warrior, Ninja Warrior Britain, and other variations.
It should exist noted that in Japan, the shows title is normally displayed in uppercase Roman letters every bit "SASUKE", rather than the Japanese text, サスケ. Although, both titles are known in Japan (yous'd probably demand to search for サスケ if looking to buy a Sasuke DVD in Japan).
Notes: Sasuke can also be a given name (written the aforementioned way). There are likewise other names that romanize as Sasuke in Japanese.
Note: Considering this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should exist written by a Japanese calligrapher.

豹 is the Chinese and Japanese discussion for the big cat known as a leopard, panther or Jaguar.
This tin can refer to well-nigh cats of the Panthera genus as well as the Puma genus (but this is non used for nearly kinds of lions, except smaller ones similar the mount lion).
Because Jaguars are not native to Asia, the characters for "American continent" is normally added before this character to specifically designate a Jaguar.
This also kind of ways Panther or Leopard in Korean Hanja but in mod Korean, they add together a Hangul character to consummate the give-and-take.
Brevity: Fewer Words are All-time
Get to the point quickly with the fewest words possible is the proffer of this Chinese proverb.
Merely taking it deeper, there is a warning that using also many words may human action to "tip your hat" or "evidence your hand" (to use two American idioms).
It can also exist said that using many words does not make the bulletin have more value.
少說為佳 is really nigh the art of brevity.
At present my merely hope is that I did non use too many words to explain this maxim.
Asian Pride / Oriental Pride / AZN Pryde
dōng fāng zì zūn
dung fong chi juen
tou hou zi son
東方自尊 is the nearly universal way to write "Asian Pride".
We worked on this one for a long time. The effort involved both Chinese and Japanese translators and lengthy discussions. If yous accept been searching for this term, there is a reason that it's difficult to find the way to write "Asian Pride" in Chinese and Japanese - it's because of the inherent difficulties in figuring out a universal combination of characters that tin can be read in all languages that use forms of Chinese characters.
This final solution that yous see to the left creates a reasonable title in Chinese, and an exotic (peradventure unusual) title in Japanese (This could be read every bit "Eastern Self-Respect" in Japanese").
Although non as natural, it does accept the same meaning in Korean Hanja and the older-generation of Vietnamese people volition be able to read it too.
The first two characters literally hateful "Oriental" and the second two mean "pride", "self-esteem", or "self-respect" (we chose the near non-arrogant way to say "pride"). If you lot have "Asian Pride" (sometimes spelled Asian Pryde) these are the characters for you.
Note: For those of you that wonder, at that place is nothing technically wrong with the word "Oriental". It is a correct word, and any bad meanings were created by then-chosen "Asian Americans" and Caucasians in the United States. To say "Asian" would non completely correct to the intended significant, since that would include people from Kingdom of saudi arabia, Iraq, Iran, India, and portions of Russia.
For further proof, if y'all were of Eastward Asian beginnings and born in England, you would be known as a "British Oriental" (The "Oriental stigma" is basically an American creation and, therefore, applies mostly to the American English linguistic communication - where they get a bit overzealous with political definiteness).
Further, since the Chinese and Japanese word for Oriental is not English, it tin can not be construed having ill-significant. One trip to Mainland china or Nihon, and y'all will observe many things titled with these 2 characters such as malls, buildings, and business names. These places also employ "Oriental" every bit their English language title (much every bit we exercise, since our Chinese business organization name starts with these same ii characters).
In curt, the first 2 character have the meaning that Americans adhere to "Asian" but is more than technically correct.
Beauty / Cute / Handsome
美 is frequently used to describe the beauty of a woman.
Notwithstanding, when applied to a man, it can hateful handsome. It'due south as well the beginning character in the discussion for "beauty salon" which you volition see all over China and Japan.
This tin be used as the given proper noun for a girl (spell information technology or say information technology as "Mei" or "May").
For a bit of trivia: The championship for the "USA" in Chinese is "Mei Guo" which literally means "Beautiful Country". This name was bestowed at a fourth dimension before Chairman Mao came to power and decided that China didn't like the United states of america anymore (even though nosotros fought together confronting the Japanese in WWII). But these days, Chinese people love Americans (but have distaste for American politics and policy). But I digress...
美 is likewise how "Beautiful" is written in Japanese Kanji and Korean Hanja. 美 tin too hateful: very satisfactory; skillful; to exist pleased with oneself; abbreviation for the USA; fine; handsome; admirable; madhura; sweet; pleasant.

Ninja
In feudal Japan, ninja or shinobi (literally, "ane who is concealed" or "one that endures") were sometimes assassins and agents of espionage. The ninja, similar samurai, followed their own special code of conduct.
The role of the ninja has been romanticized in many American movies (and to a bottom extent in Japanese movies). Because the ninja-craze has taken off in the west, Japan has followed the trend and y'all'll see plenty of ninja-related imagery in Japan.
Note that when writing this as Kanji, Japanese will tend to write the first character in the form shown to the right. If yous select our Japanese main calligrapher, please wait that course. Our Chinese calligraphers can also write it in the Japanese form but only if y'all request information technology (in the special instructions almost your order during checkout).

工合 is one of those Asian words that is used more in English than it is in the original Chinese.
Gung Ho was originally used to speak of Carlson'south Raiders, a grouping of "Gung Ho" U.S. Marines who went on an island-hopping campaign of death during WWII.
A movie called Gung Ho came out in the mid-1940s and was later re-released in the 1950s depicting the 2nd Marine Raider Battalion, and brought this discussion to the mainstream.
It is even so sometimes used today inside the U.Due south. Marine Corps brotherhood to refer to a unit of measurement or group that works well together, or is otherwise efficient and motivated (has skilful moral).
In 1986, there was a movie called Gung Ho, about a Japanese visitor taking over an American automotive factory. They completely ignored the fact that this was a Chinese title.
It should exist noted that this title actually means a condition, state, way, or health of something in Japanese.
Linguistic communication and pronunciation notes:
Like many Asian words absorbed into common use in English language, this one is drastically mispronounced. The official Romanization is "gong he" but that doesn't tell you enough. The vowel sound on the first grapheme is like the English word "own", now just add the g-sounds to the beginning and end. The second character is misleading, equally you might think it is like the English language word "he". In reality, the vowel sound is more than similar the "u" in "upwards".
Information technology should as well be noted, that the current generation in Cathay no longer uses, or recognizes this as a common word or slogan.
Annotation: This tin be pronounced and is a word in Japanese, though seldom used. Japanese will use a variation of "具合" instead. But still, non mutual.
Che Guevara
Latin American / Cuban Revolutionary
切格瓦拉 is the proper name "Che Guevara", as written (transliterated) in Mandarin Chinese.
In one case revered by Chinese people as a Socialist rebel, he'south now just a historical figure that school children briefly learn about in People's republic of china.
切格瓦拉 is because Cathay used to be a truly-Communist/Socialist nation, and thus, other Communists and Socialists were heroes.
In mod Communist china, with its free-market economic system, those sometime heroes fade a little.
Nosotros are not offering the "Che" character alone, equally few would associate information technology with Che Guevara, so you really need the full name to be clear (minus Ernesto, which is his real first proper name).
