week

On-Yomi: シュウ

Koohii stories:

1) [jschekkerman] 5-5-2007(183): Imagine a road built so well that it takes only a week to travel the circumference of the earth.

2) [axelb] 11-4-2009(100): Actually the week is like a never ending road where we travel in a circle through the same seven days again and again, the circumference is always the same. circumference (#317 周) also means circuit or lap, so that also makes think about the rotations of the moon, sun and the earth – all important for measuring all kinds of time periods.

3) [stshores24] 1-6-2008(21): This city is so big, it takes a week to travel around its circumference by road.

4) [activeaero] 18-8-2008(13): It takes a WEEK to walk the "circumference" of this "road".

5) [johngwk] 9-2-2011(6): The circumference of Japan would take at least a week on the road to navigate.
