ドはドーナツのド レはレモンのレ ミはみんなのミ ファはファイトのファ

[Michael_SD]

I'm probably being too curious in trying to understand this sig: ドはドーナツのド　レはレモンのレ　ミはみんなのミ　ファはファイトのファ -- it's got too many カタカナ for me too figure out word breaks -- but for whatever reason I was wondering if anyone would say what it means?

Hi Michael, good question!

They are song lyrics of Japanese version of "Do-Re-Mi" from "The Sound of Music".
The original lyrics are;
Do - a deer a female deer
Re - a drop of golden sun
Mi - a name I call myself
Fa - a long long way to run

Does that make sense?


EDIT:

Spoiler:

ド -　は、ドーナツ(doughnut) の　ド
レ -　は、レモン(lemon)の　レ
ミ -　は、みんな（everybody) の　ミ
ファ - は、ファイト(fight, meaning "positive energy") の　ファ

First of all, let me offer an apology for the lateness of my response. I posted my question and because I don't frequent this forum as often as I do another Japanese language forum, I completely, but inadvertently, forgot about it until now.

Oh, I had thought of the Do-Re-Mi song, but because it was in your language, and because I am still so inexpert in Japanese, I wasn't sure whether that was it.

I hadn't known that song had made its way to Japan. I do remember it and its lyrics -- fondly -- from my school days.

Thank you for the memory of that song.
