Meaning

Primary

Testicles

Word Type

noun

Explanation

You have some gold balls. What balls are more important than any other balls, at least for a dude? That would be his testicles.

This word came about because tanuki scrotum skin would be used to pound down gold into sheets. Tanuki scrotums are apparently very good at this because they are very strong and very flexible. Strange, yeah? That's why Gold balls = testicles.

Reading

きんたま

Explanation

This word uses the on'yomi for 金 and the kun'yomi for 玉. If you know the readings of your kanji, you'll know how to read this as well.

Context
