It's hilarious to this English speaker.

My mind was blown when I realized the same had been done with the Japanese word "mamachari" — that is, a popular bicycle for women that allow them to carry a child and grocery bag.

For anyone wondering, "mamachari" is Japanese shorthand for a "mama chariot!"

They're a joy to ride.
