: The reason many people file earlier than the April 15 deadline is because the amount they paid in taxes throughout the year is more than the amount owed per the tax return, so they will get a refund of part of the amount they paid. If you're getting money back, you're going to file as soon as possible and not wait until April 15. If you have to pay taxes on the return, you will probably wait until the deadline.

::I understand that. I do the same with my German tax returns: Do them as early as possible, to get some money back. But the april deadline still gives no indication that people should be beginning doing this work on February 7th. Why not on January 1st? The date of the comic is arbitrary and has no relation to the 15th of April in my view. If there is a connection it needs to be explained. --[[User:Lupo|Lupo]] ([[User talk:Lupo|talk]]) 07:37, 11 February 2020 (UTC) | ::I understand that.

| − | + | ::Employers in the US are normally required to provide summary income and payment forms (Form W-2 and variations of Form 1099, for example) by January 31 of each year. Until the taxpayer has their forms, they can't file their taxes. Copies of the forms are sent to both the government and the taxpayer, and mismatched numbers tend to raise the probability of an audit.[[Special:Contributions/108.162.241.24|108.162.241.24]] 19:06, 12 February 2020 (UTC) | |

The origin of "seitan" meaning "wheat gluten" is interesting - it was purportedly coined Japanese-French writer {{w|George Ohsawa}} using the Sino-Japanese roots ''sei'' "raw" and ''tan'' "egg", but this term was never used in Japanese. Instead, seitan ({{wiktionary|せいたん}} can mean a number of abstract concepts in Japanese depending on context, ranging from "Christmas" to "plain food" to "making charcoal". I've included a little bit of this in the main explanation.
