Accepted Answer

ジュン get used to, experienced, tamed 0 馬: horse巛: curving river radical (no.47) tame "The process to getting a tame horse is a bit like getting a tame Christian - baptizization! you take it into the river at a young age (just after it's born is best) and dunk it in until it is almost drowned. Then at the last possible moment, when its life is flashing before its eyes (good baptizers know when this is), you pull it back above water. The first thing it sees is its ""rescuer"" and ""savior"", and it will be tame and follow you for the rest of its life."
