    Is Tamago egg? As in Tamagotchi being an egg based friend.

    Yaki is grilled, like Teriyaki?

      Yep! Tamago is egg. Yaki is from the verb yaku which means grill in this context. Teri I didn’t know, but it is the kanji from verbs that have to do with shining so probably refers to the glaze being shiny.
