Souvenir from Canada



They are our guests from Canada.


They gave us a mug and spoon as a souvenir from Canada when they checked out.
It's very simple and nice mug, isn't it?
Also it's easy for everyone to realize this souvenir is from Canada.
Thanks guys. We will use them carefully.

Well, It's funny word here.
In Japan we call a mug "mug cup(マグカップ)".
We are saying the same thing twice like mug mug or cup cup.
I don't know why. But we've been saying that for ages.
Sometimes Japanese English is strange.
You might not understand the meaning when we use that.
But we've been using the kind of words without sense of incongruity.
When i find other strange words of Japanese English, i'll tell you on this blog.
Please look forward to that.
