・師走（しわす：December）
※"Shi" means a priest or monk at temples and "wasu" stands for "running" in Kanji character. Usually, they sit back and move slowly, but in December, at the end of the year, there are so many Buddhist events, so even priests or monks have to run around. That's why we call December «師走».
