A Шаблон:Nihongo is a short-legged table used in traditional Japanese homes. The original models ranged in height from Шаблон:Cvt to Шаблон:Cvt.[1] People seated at a chabudai may sit on zabuton or tatami rather than on chairs. The four legs are generally collapsible so that the table may be moved and stored easily.
Chabudai are used for various purposes, such as study tables, work benches, or dinner tables (Шаблон:Nihongo). In the winter, the chabudai is often replaced by a kotatsu, another type of short-legged table equipped with a removable top and a heater underneath.
Gaeshi
Chabudai gaeshi is a Japanese phrase meaning "to flip [the] chabudai". It describes the act of violently upending a chabudai as an expression of anger, frustration, and disapproval. It may also figuratively describe an analogous outburst and upheaval.
Video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto "upends the tea table"Шаблон:Clarify whenever a game's development did not meet his standard or needed serious reconsideration. He characterized chabudai gaeshi as an "action of old-fashioned Japanese fathers" that "would destroy the family" if attempted literally in modern Japanese society.[2][3]
A Japanese arcade game, Cho Chabudai Gaeshi, is based upon the scenario of chabudai gaeshi.[4]
