How do you say 'Oyaji' in English?

The festival is called the 'Hounensai", right?
What's the real meaning of Hounensai?
The real meaning is 'the five grains'
'Houjyo' - harvest.
The '5 grains' means 5 different types of cereals.
Daizu (Soybeans), Kome (Rice), Awa and Kibi (Millet) and Mugi (Wheat)
5 of them. In other words, to get a good harvest.
And in addition, to have lots of children.
In hope that they'll just be popping out.
Just 'popping out!?'
So to put it simply, in other words,
with those 5 grains, we hope to have a bountiful harvest and give birth to lots of children.
So that's why we have the Great Penis, the Big Penis.
You don't have any Big Penis festivals in the USA right?

To put it frankly, we (Japanese) are not almighty at English.
You're not 'almighty'.!?
No no no. English Almighty. English. Almighty.
You say 'Almighty'..?
Yeah, 'almighty' is correct. It's just that it's usually used in saying 'Almighty God'.
No no, I'm not a God.
It just has that feeling, if you say 'almighty'.
