クリぼっち *

* Christmas-alone

n. • kuri bocchi • It's a blend of クリスマス (kurisumasu "Christmas") and ひとりぼっち (hitoribocchi "alone"). In Japan, Christmas Eve and Christmas in general is a time for couples to have a romantic date, not a family holiday. So, being alone or single on those days can be rather miserable. Some people make a frantic effort to find a partner to avoid being alone.

"クリぼっちにならないため、田中さんは必死で恋人を探している。"
