I looked up this word from the dictionary. Actually here we still regard it as a kind of "carrot". We will call it as white or red carrot.
We often have daikon in cold days. Stewing beef or mutton with daikon is delicious. Do you eat daikon and how do you cook it?

@youless I don't know. maybe all of us call it the wrong way and the wrong way became correct locally?

@youless ok, i know why already. according to wikipedia, daikon is a mild-flavored winter radish (Raphanus sativus) usually characterized by fast-growing leaves and a long, white, napiform root.
so we just know them as radish here. short cut.
