waudyo (romanization)
わうぢよ (hiragana historical)

/waudʲo/ → /wɔːd͡ʑo/ → /oːd͡ʑo/
Ultimately from Middle Chinese 皇女 (MC hwang nrjoX|nrjoH).
The mixed use of the goon reading of /oː/ for the first kanji and the kan'on reading of /d͡ʑo/ for the second kanji may indicate a shift within Japanese after borrowing. The first appearance of this reading is unknown, but it would be some time after the appearance of the /koːd͡ʑo/ reading in the early 1300s.


dynamite roll

From the appearance of an uncut roll, in which the tail of the piece of prawn tempura protrudes from one end, resembling the fuse of a stick of dynamite.

Fried gyoza, wasabi shumai, tako su; yellowtail sashimi, scallop sashimi, squid sashimi, crunchy spicy scallop roll, dynamite roll, dragon roll, yin yang roll, traffic signal roll, daiko roll, Jimmy’s roll.

2009 June 7, Stephanie Lyness, “Sushi at the Shore, With Lower Prices”, in New York Times:

kago

There are two sorts of palanquin, the norimon and the cango. The former, which requires four bearers for long journeys, is a large, heavy box, in which one may sit with tolerable comfort. The sides are in lacquered wood, and contain two sliding doors. Although this norimon is, par excellence, the vehicle of the nobility, it admits of no ornaments, and is used by the ladies of the middle class and by the registered courtesans, because both occupy a certain position of fortune and consideration in society. The cango is a light litter of bamboo, open on both sides; it requires only two bearers, who always walk with a rapid and regular step. They rest for one minute out of twenty. When they go back, each carries in his turn the cango, suspended at the end of a pole, over his shoulder.

1874, Aimé Humbert, translated by Frances Cashel Hoey et al., Japan and the Japanese Illustrated, page 156:

There are no roads outside the villages in northern Yezo, no jinriksha,—those most fascinating man-power carriages,—no kago, or swinging cars, and no side-saddles...

1898 July, Mabel Loomis Todd, "In Aino-land", The Century Illustrated Montly Magazine, Vol. LVI, No. 3, p. 346

With the long kagos, three coolies are always used, and sometimes four.
