Earth-Shock!
When an earth-shock gives a blow to the sea, a great amount of seawater goes away from the land. The water, before long, comes back, looking like a wall or mountain, running and rolling with great power. When it comes to the land with a crush, everything gets washed away. We have a history of deaths and wounds made by this sort of killer wave. Because Japan is a group of islands in the sea and frequently has an earth-shock, Japanese language has a special word for the killer wave: Tsunami. This word went overseas and now used in general, unlimited English.
This morning, the southwest part of Japan had an earth-shock. The good thing is that there were no killer waves this time. ¶ 01:11
| The Earth is like a fruit with hard skin and very soft meat. The meat is like liquid, moving under the skin. The skin, or the great cover made of stone, sometimes makes a crack, sending out a shockwave. When the shockwave comes out to the face of the earth, it gives a shake. It's an earth-shock.
