〉・Yes, I can swim.


Yes! Zourimushis can swim.
I know. I know.
I have seen many zourimushis swimming in the water
at the NHK TV program.
They are really a good swimmer.
They can swim very fast like a torpedo.


〉・My name is kind of a musical instrument.


Now I'm convinced.
The answer must be “Zourimushi”!

〉知らないよなぁ、普通(^^;


Really?
You don't know the “Zourimushi”?
It's a very popular instrument!
My uncle Taiyaki invented it ten years ago.
Now you can see them in any instrument store.
It looks like a rugby ball,
but its surface is covered with many, many needles.
You hold the instrument with your left hand (carefully not to be hurt by the needles)
and scratch the needles with your right hand.
The short needles make high sounds and the long needles make low sounds.
This is the way how to play the Zourimushi.
Its sounds are very beautiful.
I like it.
You'll like it.
If you want to enjoy the music of this instrument,
you can find many CDs in the Music store of the Amazon.
Try to search with the key word “Zourimushi”.


Happy Writing 〜♪
