Tree

"Kanagi Eda": Kanagi is the name of a long and slender tree, and "eda" means branch. Without context, it just means something like "branch of (a/the) kanagi". If you want the literal meaning of each ideogram: Metal, Tree, Branch.

edit: Talking about Kanagi, it's also the name of a city in Northern Japan, in which Osamu Dazai (a Japanese author) was born. You may like some of his books

Not really, I'm just a Japanese language major that likes to take a guess every now and then

Anyway, I talked to the other teachers here at school, and even though they agreed with me at first, they later thought the author could have meant to write "‹à–Ø�Ò" which would is something like "the evergreen shrub of an olive tree". We really need to know what the context is

Would have to be a bit ironic, given that the tree is mostly bare.

Well, in that case, it could also be a reverse Engrish: Someone tried to say something in Japanese and, in spite of my efforts to make it meaningful, it may turn out to be just a collection of random symbols to set an ethnic feel that happen to make some sense together.

True that

I didn't actually see the picture then, as I was working at the time and I turn images off in order to browse safely - I just took a quick look at posted right away. But now that I see it...
