It is a tough question. "Haikus" sounds so wrong to me, too. But we do count Haiku in a special way. I don't know if you want to hear this but the way Haiku is used in US is already inaccurate. For a starter, Haiku must contain a word for the season of the moment. It is tough for the Stats those which doesn't have any sense of season :-) >Japanese language >Even the children speak it >It must be easy... This isn't far off.
