The first character means, "retreat; withdraw; retire; resign; repel; expel; reject," the second character means, "meeting; meet; party; association; interview; join."<br /><br /><br />Taihai [体配]<br /><br />The characters/ideograms mean "enter dojo, perform steps in order with timing, exit the dojo." The first character means "body; substance; object; reality," the second character means, "distribute; spouse; exile; rationing."<br /><br />I was unable to find any direct reference to the word taihai except on youtube showning entering the dojo, the performance, and then leaving the dojo. I have other kanji sources but none, as you indicated, have this word.<br /><br />CharlesCharles Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812618556413423872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020823067576006225.post-70229624960927865062013-05-16T01:49:42.902+09:002013-05-16T01:49:42.902+09:00Kanji nerd, I kind of like that.

James: 体配 The ...Thanks for the comments everybody.<br /><br />James: 体配 The word itself doesn't come up in any dictionaries. If you dissect the kanji (like I know you're probably interested in) 体 refers to body/style/form/substance/center appearance, and 配 means distribute or deliver. I'm glad there's other kanji nerds out there :)Zacky Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174486813298415578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020823067576006225.post-62101165145517818232013-05-15T06:12:57.543+09:002013-05-15T06:12:57.543+09:00Congratulations!Congratulations!Rick Matzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09699550034693340637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020823067576006225.post-14574968256088255652013-05-15T00:43:35.467+09:002013-05-15T00:43:35.467+09:00Can you supply the kanji for taihai, curious as th...Can you supply the kanji for taihai, curious as the interpretations I find are, "crushing defeat<br />degeneration; decadence; deterioration; laxness; corruption<br />large cup<br />degenerate; decadent"<br /><br />Charles Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812618556413423872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020823067576006225.post-58957236306052040662013-05-15T00:41:42.910+09:002013-05-15T00:41:42.910+09:00Nice post.
