めがね橋

So, in Japanese, they call bridges supported by two arches "meganebashi" which is "megane" (eyeglasse) and "hashi" (bridge) stuck together. Note how "hashi" changes to "bashi." This kind of phonemic transformation makes me think of fruit, and I don't know why. Actually, I think it's specifically the h-->b move that gets me. It makes me think of melon, which I guess in turn generates other fruits like strawberries and bananas, and rainbows and...chibi hula girls...

WTF.
