      Let’s just take a moment to remember when Shinzo Abe accidentally told all women to die. (死ね, pronounced ‘shiné’, is an order to die, so the sentence reads as "Die! All Women, Towards A Sparkly Japan")pic.twitter.com/DJOc4NQmkJ

          That would be read as シャイン, not 死ね

          Not a homophone story but "shine" related. I kept getting the weirdest looks from salesclerks every time I said 死んでいますか。when asking for help. Finally dug out my dictionary and realized I meant to say 知っていますか。😟
