4月1日(shigatsu tsuitachi): April 1

A new month has started. April is shigatsu (四月), literally four month. The old name is uzuki (卯月).
April is a start month for us. Schools start in April, and fiscal year starts in April.
Usually schools have graduation ceremony in March and entrance ceremony in April. But this year because of the great earthquake happened on March 11, everything is now forborne.

  1. Why is 四月一日 read as Watanuki? Does it only apply for Japanese name?
    Thank you!
