    Its actually decently close, but a touch off. Off enough that you’ll definitely sound like an American trying to speak Japanese, and if you’re actually in Japan, they may not recognize a few of these. The numbers are good aside from 6 (Roku) and 10 (needs a y in it, like jyew). Ohio is also hilariously accurate enough.

    In Japanese, R and L are the same, and it sounds a bit like making both sounds at the same time (its done by trilling the R, a little bit lik rolling an R). In this document, they use L, but you’ll probably have an easier time being understood using R. (Key ray instrad of key lay, Airy got toe).

    Induction!

    Did you ever do the experiment where if you coil a wire, and then hook it up to a battery, it becomes magnetic?

    Well it works in reverse, too. If you move a magnet near a coil, it generates power! Specifically, its the motion of the magnet that makes power, so the magnets are mounted to the spinny spinny bit and the coils are in the base hooked up to the grid.

    (this is an oversimplification)

    In slightly more detail, motors work on the same principle, since they’re just magnets and coiled wires. Apply power to the leads to spin the motor, but also, you can spin the motor by hand like a crank to generate power at the leads.

    This is also how wireless charging works. Power goes into a wired coil that makes a magnet that makes power in another wired coil inside your phone,

    This was me. Not all of it was yee yee jesus. A lot of ot can be more relatable, like overcoming adversity not necessarily with the help of a higher power, or expressing frustration at injustice. Even a decent amount of the god-fearing songs were subtle enough to be mistaken for love songs. I’m not religious, but it was nice to have the option in my household.
