No problem. I'll take the challenge. :sweat:

L [‚Ì‚µ] noshi; (n) an iron/(P)

I guess it's an iron for ironing, since the kanji also means: expand, stretch, extend. :)

ŽlŠp@y‚µ‚©‚­z (shikaku) ~ square

Okay this doesn't help. Would it be a thing to flatten dough with?? I don't know the english word. In dutch we call it (translated) a "dough roller" :)

Wait.. I get it... since L‚· means to smooth out, a L‚µ is a "smoothener". They probably use this word both for "an iron" and also a "dough roller". Then the usual word for "an iron" would be ƒAƒCƒƒ“ (airon). Just guessing though. :beaten:

‰š’n [‚­‚Ú‚¿] kubochi; (n) pit/hollow/basin/depression

I also found it with the same definition and kanji, but written with these kana: ‚¨‚¤‚¿ (ouchi). Due to my crappy skills, I don't know which one is better, but I need a ‚­. ;)
