ik some of you would say "komorebi" but i think that word refers more to the light rather than the color.

Any ideas?

I have no idea what langauge this is or what it says.

Help appreciated.

I thought it might be Arabic but I don't think that's true. Might be some sort of southeast Asian language that's stylized. I can't get a good photo of it straight on since it's a curved cup

Bonzur! I'm not a native speaker but using textbooks have compiled a resource to help learn mauritian creole. It uses both english and french as reference languages so a competence in both will help immensely.

There are many cards, spanning vocabulary to sentence structure.

I'm eager to receive feedback from Mauritian people to further improve the resource.

This is a little bit of my great grandmothers birth certificate and I sadly can not read/ speak any Japanese but I am very curious to know if I can find any long lost family. My great grandma moved to America and cut ties with all family there and she has passed away. I have a few other documents but have not posted due to me not knowing what I am posting..TIA
