I worked as a physical therapist at a general hospital for about four years. I’ve supported a wide range of patients, from those needing emergency rehabilitation to those doing rehabilitation at home at a comfortable pace. As a writer, I’d be happy to share health-related information with many people. Thank you, and I look forward to working with you!

After saying “ne mimi ni mizu” ten times, if someone asks, “What do you put on the hook for fishing?”, don’t you feel like you’ll blurt out “mimizu” (earthworm)? The “say it 10 times” quiz is a slightly cheeky and unique trick game that exploits how the sound of words lingers in your head.

It’s easy for older adults to enjoy, and by repeating the phrase out loud, the mouth naturally loosens up; then, the moment they hear the correct answer, laughter spreads with a “You got me!” It also livens up conversation when friends pose the questions to each other.

Give it a try and enjoy it casually.
