So, I suffer from acid reflux..a more severe type of heartburn, and can't take my medicine to Japan because it is in a glass bottle , open and will probs leak or smash or something.
It is basic over the counter stuff so i decided to learn how to ask for it in Japan
I can already say "My stomach hurts" so figured it can't be that hard to say I have acid reflux..."ashido referukusu..."right?
WRONGacid reflux is:
胃逆流性食道炎igyakuruseishokudoen for those of you who can't read such crazy Kanji, myself included ofcourse.
I will *never remember* that
However the word for heartburn is
胸焼けmuneyakeand you use it with suru not aru... I can remember that no probs!
胸焼けがします!
On another note, i put my PC into Japanese mode to try and get some
Idolmaster emoticons to work.. and failed miserably :( Now all my file directories use the Yen sign instead of / and my PC is throwing a bit of a wobbly, i'll sort it when i get back..maybe..
