swirling waters

On-Yomi: ジュン

Koohii stories:

1) [dihutenosa] 28-7-2008(33): You have got a really, really plugged up bathtub - so plugged up, as a matter of fact, that when you get out of the bath, it takes an entire decameron for the gently swirling waters to go all the way down. You are really annoyed at this (it's gross, besides), so you get a tiny little sun and bound it up with twine, and lower it into the drain. It clears the clog right up, and the swirling waters zip right on down!

2) [astridtops] 7-1-2007(23): For ten days, we watched the swirling waters, but it didn't seem like the water would rise in another tsunami.

3) [koohiikun] 1-7-2010(6): Without the swirling waters of a toilet, you may have to hold your water for a decameron. How's that for bladder training?

4) [At0m5k] 9-8-2009(5): Swirling waters are truly a wonderful thing to behold. I could watch them for a whole decameron and never get bored. (I haven't been able to find any other reference stating that this kanji means swirling waters, so I'm going with truly as the main meaning).

5) [kapalama] 12-8-2011(3): 洵 , 洵美 , swirling waters (#2290 洵)ジュン( 旬 ), まこと … Parts:氵, 旬 decameron (#67 旬) (cf: 殉 martyrdom (#809 殉), 詢 counsel (#2705 詢), 恂Unicode-0x6042 (#24642 恂) … Note: Keyword just a mnemonic, 洵 , 詢 , 恂, are all male names read まこと or ジュン. Many other kanji share the readings. … Story: You note the Swirling Waters after you take a bath for the first time in Ten Days in June(reading).
