Current Entry芳紀 [ほうき] /(n) age (of a young lady)/sweet seventeen/ (1517750)
Headword 1芳紀
Reading 1ほうき
Part-of-speechn
English 1peak of (sexual) attractiveness(芳紀まさに16歳: "sweet sixteen")
English 2marriable age (of a young lady)
ReferenceDetails from various 国語辞典:

女性の若く美しいころ。年ごろを迎えた女性の年齢。「―まさに一八歳」
花子は芳紀まさに16歳だ Hanako is sweet sixteen.

年頃の女性の年齢。 「―まさに一八歳」
CommentYou will notice that 年頃 is used in two sources in the sense of "nubile" - i'll
amend that entry accordingly...

Although there are strong tendencies in certain cultures to suppress or cover
up the natural smell(s) of humans (perhaps on account of misguided thinking
that we are not animals), ;-) in our language we still use plenty of smell-
related expressions to indicate likes, dislikes, sexual attractiveness, etc. -
and i don't expect that to change very soon, either... ;-)

CommentSays my humble self who at times wears other hats, ("radio operator", "electronics technician", "audio technician", "electrician"):
The two types of audio related equipment that the public commonly encounters come in the "拡音..." flavour and the "拡声..." flavour, whereby the former's purpose is related to optimally reproducing music and the latter to optimally reproducing spoken announcements (there are - in many cases - differences in design and performance that go beyond the scope of this reference work to explain, but anybody interested may want to look at the second paragraph of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_reinforcement_system)...
