You guys are far too strict and critical - koi keeping and koi varieties is not an exact science - give others a little slack please.

Herewith to clear up matters are the correct definitions of koi varieties ... so please learn them correctly as you are going to write a test on this ...

AI-GOROMO: Agreeing with an Indian chief.
AI AI-GOROMO: Mexican hat dance.
AKA: A machine gun used in the early part of the Second World War but was withdrawn from production because it could only fire two bullets at a time - a-ka, a-ka.

KI BEKKO: Same Marx brother but with jaundice.

GIN RIN: Type of martini.
GOSHIKI: An expression used when identifying a sticky substance on the face of a child with a cold..
HANATSUKI: New model motorbike recently released to compete with Honda etc.

HI UTSURI: Recognising Mr. Utsuri.
HI OGON: Same recognition different Mr.

JUMBO KOI: For a beginner - anything that swims that is larger than 20cm. For someone who has been to a koi show - anything that swims and is above 70cm. For someone who has been to Japan - anything above 2 meters.
KABUTO: Small town in Swaziland. (its true!)
KAGE: Avoiding the situation.
KINDAI: Pronounced kin - die. Thoughts that cross your mind when your family disapproves of your hobby of collecting koi.
KIWA: Clear-cut definition between two different colours as in the New Zealand All Blacks rugby jerseys. Usage - those bloody kiwa's beat us in the rugby tests again.
KOHAKU: Sneezing in Japanese (think about it). ko-HAK-u

"Oh shimmi there's a black dot!" Beginning to replace the original "Oh Sanke! There is a black spot on my Kohaku"
SHIRO: Although shiro is translated as plain white it must be the ultimate expression of the way a tategoi can develop. "shiro, Shiro, SHIRO - it lost all it's bloody colour".

SHUSUI: Double meaning here - Discouraging a pet dog named Sue from christening the leg of a visitor and -
