 Posted: Mon Dec 04, 2006 1:59 pm Post subject: Tokyo Nickname |
 |
|
I had a private lesson tonight, and we were talking about nicknames of American cities: Motown, The Big Apple, The Windy City, etc.
He said Tokyo doesn't have a nickname. I suggested, "The Walking Dead."
What nickname would you give Tokyo? |

| As Y.S. pointed out -- The Big Mikan is the one I'm familiar with (and sometimes use). |
