Hashi

Definition

Hashi means chopsticks in Japanese. They are utensils commonly used for eating meals in Japan instead of forks and knives.

Analogy

Picture hashi as two little bridges that help guide food from your plate into your mouth. Just like how chopsticks bridge the gap between your plate and your taste buds!
