More about Heno Heno:
When possible, we try to introduce some points of the Japanese culture when related to our products. へ の へ の も へじ (HeNoHeNoMoHeJi) is undoubtedly the oldest "emoji" in Japan. "An emo...what?!". An emoji is a "drawing" made from (moji) Japanese alphabet’s characters. In other words, it's similar to a smiley.
へ の へ の も へじ (HeNoHeNoMoHeJi) "hénohénomohéji" is a face made using "Japanese characters" (Hiragana) as follows: へ (He) for the eyebrows and the mouth, の "no" for the eyes, も "mo" for the nose, and じ "ji" for the face (with two drops of sweat). For many years, the expression へ へ の の も へじ "héhénonomohéji" was used by young children but as you may notice, the pronunciation is not very easy. It is, of course, possible to create other faces with 平 仮 名(Hiragana) "Japanese characters" starting with the wife of Mr.Hénohénomohéji: へ め へ めく こ ひ (HeMeHeMeKuKoHi) "héméhémékukohi"!
Did you know that Mr. Hénohénomohéji is usually working in the fields? He tries the best he can to scare away crows. He is always silent and planted in the ground. Yes, it's a 案 山 子 (Kakashi) scarecrow.
