A term derived from the Japanese word for "fool" which when applied to a lens refers to the pleasing quality of the out of focus areas of an image produced by the lens. Thought to be related to factors like the shape of the aperture opening and spherical aberration.
In photography, Bokeh is a Japanese word - the transliteration of a Japanese word for "blur" - describing the subjective aesthetic quality of out-of-focus areas of an image projected by a camera lens. For example, in some images the background may be deliberately caused to be out-of-focus to reduce distractions and to emphasize the primary subject.

Get the Boku no piko mug.A nonsensical chant from Banjo Kazooie often associated with the character Mumbo Jumbo. It is heard when one picks up a Mumbo Token in the first game. In the second game, when Mumbo Tokens are no longer used, it is heard in the background music in Mayahem Temple and also when mumbo uses magic. We know how to spell it from the sides of the Mumbo Pads in the second game. Also rhymes with the teacher surname, Yochim.
Eekam Bokum, Mr Yochim!!!

Get the Eekam Bokum mug.A bokken is a wooden sword usually used for sword training. When a student begins to work with a sword, he learns basic maneuvers with a bokken. However, the bokken can also be used as an effective weapon since it is made of strong, heavy wood. In fact, many Ninja preferred to use the bokken on a mission than a regular sword.
The reasons for this are that a bokken is lighter and easier to carry, there is no risk of cutting oneself, bokken are very easy to camouflage since they can be stained or painted, and, when using proper techniques, a bokken can easily break bones and damage internal organs.
