Unfortunately this ends the game since it breaks rule No. 4 (Paraphrasing: Words can’t start nor end with kana).

しりとり！

I know. I realised as soon as I posed it and I couldn`t remove it.

検算 「けんざん」- verification of a calculation

There are literally two words in the dictionary that start with 剣! One of them ends with 者 so I couldn’t even use it :joy:

I checked with a few people and no one could think of a continuation (it could be continued using names but that feels like cheesing to me). I found three very obscure words in my kanji dictionary though. I think perhaps we should have a no “no proper nouns・固有名詞” rule as it is pretty easy to end the game using names. Not sure what everyone else thinks.

Is this true?

Regardless, 険、検 and 剣 are all different kanji so it looks like that’s しりとり!

Starting again, as it is the start perhaps you’ll forgive me using an idiom and not a word.

口くちは禍わざわいの元もと - the mouth is the origin of disaster (meaning: stop talking so much or you'll put your foot in it)

設置（せっち）institution

I agree with the no proper nouns rule. Names can have some crazy rare kanji!
