luna is a better word for it, also a better name for humans and pets. aside from tides, still unclear on moon stuff.

suki vs tsuki. I can't pronounce it but I think the japanese can. tsunami is basically tsuki+nami = moon + wave

Edit: I was wrong. Just wanted to use an example word people know with tsu sound.

Tsunami つなみ 津波 is composed of

  • tsu つ 津, wharf, a place to park boats
  • nami なみ 波, tide, wave

So it's high waves from a wharf. It's not a tide since having a tsunami every month would be devastating…

Thank you. I should have just said tsu is in the tsunami similarly but in English we learn t is silent because we can't pronounce it.

The best ideograms still look like their source:

  • 山 is mountain
  • 1 is one
  • 月 is moon
  • 中 is center
  • 三 is three
