Itadakimasu-Gochisosama

from Land Of The Rising Son

There are two very important words in Japanese with deep meaning but no equivalent sentiment in the English concept of language. Itadakimasu and gochiso sama are very important parts of the dining etiquette in Japan. Itadakimasu is said just before eating, it literally means "to receive" or "accept " but in this context more like a DNA infused Japanese Way in a ritualistic connotation, you could almost say it's like a prayer.
