  • Instead, "誤り ayamari", that is, the noun form of the verb "誤る ayamaru" is almost always used to convey the generic sense of "error" or "mistake".

  • For many years, decades even, the Japanese made a huge stink about using the word “apology,” (i think the fuss was over the words “ayamari” or “shazai”) and i think Murayama’s was actually the very first to do so (which was big news in Asia), and even then IIRC, i think it was in not in an official capacity.
