In a bid to get my allergies under control, and somehow managing to land a job in Japan whilst running on what seems to be a whole single sandwich and lugging 37 ish kg around with me, I have managed to get barely any of my Japanese sorted and the whole thing has been ... well safe to say I will be glad to sleep today.
So some allergy words because these are now things I have to watch out for and 2 birds one stones and I am learning as to why it is beneficial for these things to be digital and not physical because these are not art notes, or jotting notes, or figuring out something notes, these are finalised notes which I will return to and rant rant rant rant rant I am sick of having to lug things around and losing pieces of paper, and I have seen too many people with like 2 pieces of luggage and mostly I just hate owning physical things and moving house and blegh.
Allergies~! /*3*/
Vegan = 絶対菜食主義者 / ヴィーガン / Beiigan
First one is long boi, second one reflects how much Vegans will probably struggle in Japan, because the second one is a popular Wasei Eigo kinda mess where you can ask for Vegan stuff, but it might be Vegetarian or even pescatarian, so beware, but also, its a newish thing for a good number of people, especially the elderly so please do your own research rather than just taking my word for it.
Vegetarian = 菜食主義者 / ベジタリアン / Vejatarian
First one is literally Vegetable Diet Eating Person so take that one with a pinch of salt, but the Kanji is about right, the second one follows a borrow-it-from-that-weird-Eigo-language trend.
Gluten = 麩質 / Fushitsu
Dairy = 牛乳 / 乳製品 / Gyuunyuu sha
First one is cow's milk, second one is Dairy products literally.
Lactose = 乳糖 / Nyuutou
Literally Milk Sugar, part of the protein Casein I think which is the component of Cow Milk which those unfortunate to suffer with it have adverse reactions to.
