HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED?

            Titles and branding are important especially if you wanted to make your product and ideas to reach stardom. Right? However, every title that each movie has means something (something that only few knew.)

            Did you know the story or meaning behind the title of Yamato Nadeshiko? If not, scroll down. If 

Yamato Nadeshiko

yes, then close the page and find some other interesting topic or probably you may also read this one.

   Did you know that the meaning of Yamato Nadeshiko is somewhat far from what the story tells us? However, there are also certain meanings that connect to the context of the story.

            So if you want to know more about it you may Read it and seek.

            According to Kenkyusha’s Japanese-English Dictionary (5^th edition, 2003), Yamato Nadeshiko means an “Ideal woman” and from Daijirin Dictionary (3^rd Ed.) it was defined as a figure of speech for the beauty of Japanese women who are neat and tidy”.

            It was also known as an ideal Japanese Woman per Confucianism wherein they must act for the benefit of her family and following instructions or acting in the best interest of patriarchal authority figures. 

            They must be a devoted wife to their husband. She must never oppose to him even though she knew that he was wrong. They must be gentle and delicate but also be able to endure all the pain and poverty if life.

            However, Yamato Nadeshiko also means the name of a flower known “Fringed Pink” or Dianthus Superbus; it is a small, common but easily distinguishable flower which grows wild.

            Now, can you recognize or identify why Yama to Nadeshiko was the title of the love story of Sunako or Kyouhei or you are also puzzled up like me?

Think about it.
