Toot

“every year in Japan there is a vote for the most popular new word. A few years ago, the word of the year was "KY." It stands for kuuki yomenai, which means "one who cannot read the air"—in other words, a person sorely lacking the ability to read between the lines. In Japan if you can't read the air, you are not a good listener.”

~ Erin Meyer, The culture map
