Nov.21.2009 Behind the name "Ajinomoto"


Do you know the meaning of "Ajinomoto" One of Indonesian seasoning product?
At first i thought that Ajinomoto doesn`t have any meaning so personally.
I thought it`s only a ordinary name that doesn`t have anything to explain about.
But, i was wrong.

This afternoon, i took my japanese course.
And i learnt about adjective in Japanese.
And my "sensei"/teacher told me about that.


It`s appear that "Ajinomoto" does have meaning, not like what i thought first.
But, the meaning is in Japanese.

Aji-No-Moto

Aji (あじ) means flavor
No (の) means possession (like her, his, their, etc.)
Moto (もと) means natural

So, if it is combined, AJINOMOTO means natural flavor

hehe ^^
