Wrist watch in Japanese 🇯🇵

うでどけい info.

Tips to remember the Japanese word:
– Break it down: "うで" (ude) means "arm" and "どけい" (dokei) means "clock/watch."
– Visualize a watch on an arm to link "うで" (arm) with "どけい" (watch).

Explanations:
– The word "うでどけい" (udedokei) directly translates to "arm clock," essentially a wristwatch.

Other words that mean the same thing:
– 時計 (とけい, tokei): Generally means "watch" or "clock," can be used for wristwatch in context.
– 腕時計 (うでどけい, udedokei): The full form specifically means wristwatch.
– 手首時計 (てくびどけい, tekubidokei): Another term, meaning "wrist clock," though less commonly used.

Alternate meanings like slang:
– The term “うでどけい” (udedokei) does not have widely recognized slang meanings.
