Why name a something that's been a thing in the west since the beginning of time with a japanese buzz name? what's the goal?


Because English is not their primary language and the world doesn't revolve around the English language???


That Japanese "buzz name" is just what it's called in Japanese for "invisible mending". What do you want them to call it in their native language?


For you and anyone else to expand their foreign language vocabulary.


Those foreigners speaking unamerican languages!


it's just the Japanese name for it
