An arcane kanji meaning arcane..
  • KyuzoKyuzo August 2010

    秘儀的 is almost impossible get a confirmed pronounciation for.
    Even on Jim Breen's JDIC there is a 【？】as for kana reading of it!
    According to furiganizer though, it reads [ひぎてき].
    By the looks of it, it's a -na adjective and a good equivalent in English for it would be 'arcane', a most befitting word..
    I am looking forward to your contribution on this kanjiplex!

    It's indeed pronounced ひぎてき. 秘儀 means a ceremony which is executed in secret, so I guess arcane is a decent translation.

    Explained very clearly above .. .. I also understand that there is nothing else to add?

    It is added, just search for 秘儀. -的 is technically a suffix and can be affixed to pretty much any noun to make it into an adjective, it's therefore rare that words ending in -teki get their own entries.
