Cuppa or Kappa

Some people say 'do you want a cuppa'? As you know, 'a cuppa' means a cup of tea. But it always reminds me of 'Kappa', because of its sound:) When I googled the word 'Kappa', it showed the Italian company specialized at the manufacture of sporting clothes and accessories. But I mean 'kappa' a legendary creatures in Japanese folklore. It's a sort of water sprite.

 

Tono, Iwate, Japan
Kappabuchi, a river where kappa are said to live.

Kappa are typically depicted as roughly humanoid in form, and about the size of a child. They have green-ish reptilian skin, webbed hands and feet, a beak for a mouth, and a plate on the top of their head that is always wet. They inhabit the ponds and rivers. They are mischievous and troublesome creatures and play a prank on people. And also, in folklores, frequently they have been blamed for drownings, especially horses and cows. Do you like a kappa? No, thank you...
