Valentine’s Day is a little different in Japan than elsewhere. Most noticeably only women give chocolate or candy to men. But White Day evens out things. A month after today (March 14th), men give women chocolates and gifts. Useful words: 義理チョコ giri choko obligatory chocolates 本命チョコ hon mei choko heartfelt (rather than obligatory) gift of chocolate to a man on Valentine’s Day: |
