Just as it says on the tin.

Literally 'bottom taking', you take the last hiragana/katakana/syllable of the word before you, and use it as the first letter of a new word.

The only character you cannot end with is 'n' (ん), since no words begin with it.


so, for a not-very-original start;

ロリ

I hope that is allowed... if not, then use:
りんご

woot. Kanji I recognise.

Incidentally, do you: 旅行をします。 Or : 旅行に行きます。? (Do a trip, or Go on a trip)

In english, the latter sounds better, but I'm pretty sure its the first one, since the japanese looks nicer, I'm not sure though.

Anyway, continuing (decided to put english meanings in):


うみ (Sea)

If you are looking for "To travel" it would be 旅行する. If you are looking for something like "To go on a trip", that would probably be the same, though I am not 100% sure.

みじかい

Yeah, I have my kana down pretty well, I'm just starting to learn some kanji though. I know my forms pretty well.
血の雨

ちのあめ (Bloodshed)

does that work, or does it count as a phrase? Sorry, ち is hard...

There is ちつ, but that is dirty... I think its kanji is 膣
