Year of the Rooster in Japanese Calligraphy

酉年 (toridoshi)

The Japanese word 酉年 meaning "Year of the Rooster" is composed of the kanji 酉 (read tori) meaning "sign of the bird" (commonly translated as "cock" or "rooster") and 年 (read doshi) meaning "year". If you are looking for a design for the animal associated with this sign then consider using 鶏 Chicken (niwatori) or 鳥 Bird (tori).
