This sign is of a snack bar near one of our classrooms.

It show the name of the bar, "SUNAKKU YUNIKOHN".

But, actually, the animal above the sign isn't a unicorn; it's Pegasus! :)

haha that's funny.
I've once saw Jinnai Tomonori performing a skit on strange signs in Japan ^^

Oh, Jinnai Tomonori!
There are also a lot of books and websites to show strange signs in Japan.

That's a funny sign. I probably would have never noticed the difference in name versus the picture. :)

Thank you for your correction! Yes, it should be "for" exactly. It just suits.
And... Oh, gosh! I forgot to write the "s" again!
In fact, I was wondering if "Pegasus" is a proper noun or not.

That 'a' correction is in error and you were correct as you wrote it. I forgot that Pegasus referred to a specific winged horse in Greek mythology.

Thank you for correcting my correction (and for making me look it up). :)

I see. Now I know the "linguistic" difference between a unicorn and Pegasus.
I am grateful to you for your kindness and also to someone who wrote the sign for giving the opportunity for this. :)
